How many times can I install
llNewton:
Hey! How many times can I install your products? I got GSX, KDFW and KLAX. I have installed them all with online registration but my fsx seems to mess up often so it happens that I install them once in a while. FSX likes to crash.
Hnla:
What do you mean "install", do you mean run the installer scenery after you have activated the scenery ? Once you have the scenery activated you can run the installer an infinite number of times, and it won't matter.
If you mean activation, you have a total of 6 activations of the product, with auto-reclaim avery 90 days.
virtuali:
Reinstalling on the same system, even if you remove the whole FSX, doesn't count as an activation so, this can be done an unlimited number of times.
If you reformat Windows or change hardware you will consume one of your 6 activations.
If you REMEMBER to use the "Deactivate" a product with the Addon Manager BEFORE upgrading/reformatting your system, you won't consume an activation and this can be done an unlimited number of times too.
So, basically, you can always reinstall an unlimited number of times, even after a complete reformat or new hardware, as long as you don't forget there's a "Deactivate" function, that you don't have to use, if you want to "just" reinstall, without a reformat or a change of hardware.

Ok, thanks! What does auto-reclaim mean?

Ok, but how come the limit is 6? Is there anyway I can check hom many I have left. I think I should have all even though I've reinstalled but who knows.
