If you want to transfer the license for a Client Option from one PC to another, you must first deactivate the option.

Deactivation makes the License Activation Code (LAC) for the option available again. You can activate the license on another PC using the LAC.

The deactivation process depends on whether your PC is connected to the Internet:

  • If your PC is connected to the Internet: Use Automatic deactivation.
  • If your PC is not connected to the Internet: Use Manual deactivation.

After deactivation is complete, you can View deactivation status and LAC of an option in the deactivation history.

<Automatic Deactivation Procedure>

  1. In the License Activation window, under Activated Options, click Deactivate next to the option that you want to deactivate.

    • If there is no Deactivate button next to the option, the option is activated by a dongle.

    The Client Option is deactivated.
