Transferring Lightburn to new PC

[adot45 (David)]

I have a question about transferring Lightburn from my current computer to a new computer. Also, I have it installed on 2 computers. Should I just d/l Lightburn with the new computer and install it and paste my registration number in? Or should I uninstall it from my old computer first before putting the newer computer online? (I would like to maintain only 2 activations)
Thank You

This will remove the License on this computer. On your new computer install Lightburn and activate with your license key.
