Title: Installing On Multiple Computers
Post by: PilotJsmith on December 28, 2008, 08:41:15 pm
Is it possible to install the scenery on multiple computers with different hardware set ups and to use them at the same time all with one purchase.

I don't mind if you have to use multiple activation codes, it's just I want to be able to run it on multiple machines and only to pay once.

I am looking at the KORD scenery for FSX.

As explained on the FAQ, you have 6 activations per order. Whether these are 6 hardware changes to a PC, or 6 entirely different PCs, it doesn't matter.

If 6 activations are not enough, if you buy more licenses, the activations will increase. There are discounts for multiple licenses, which are indicated under the "Volume license" option when you buy.

I reformat my PC very often and i have reactivated it many times. What shall I do if I run out of possible activations??

As explained on the FAQ, if you used 6 activations, and the older is not older than 90 days, you will need to email us, so we can manually reactivate you.

I thought you only used an activation if new hardware was detected... Formatting doesn't change hardware. ???

Formatting SOMETIMES changes the volume ID that SOMETIMES is reported by Windows as a new hardware that SOMETIMES the Esellerate software detect as a new activation. However, the Esellerate software recognize what they call "minor hardware changes", and it usually don't waste an activation.
