It may be installed on more than one computer, for example a desk top computer and a laptop, but only one of these may legally be used at any one time.  The licence is, however, not transferable so it may not legally be sold or given away. Each licence is limited as to the number of times it can be installed. This allows for upgrades or harddrive replacement to an extent but limits the illegal installation of the program. All you need to do is email customerservice@dbasellc.com and explain the situation.  When I've needed to do this in the past the number of re-installs allowed has been extended without a problem.  Your UserId and password will be unchanged.
