moving to new computer

Post by Geordianna » 09 Feb 2012 16:05

I have FH 4 installed on two computers and I am about to replace my laptop. Should I uninstall from the old one before installing on the new one? And will my licence key still work?

Your license key will work fine, but to keep in terms with the license, once you have installed the program on the new laptop you should remove the program from the old one, especially if it is going to a new home.

Please see the Knowledge Base advice Family Historian : Installation Guide.

This gives a great deal of advice on how to move FH, its settings, and your GEDCOM data from one PC to another.
