About a month ago I asked about migrating my Iclone5pro to a new computer.
https://forum.reallusion.com/Topic201050-281-1.aspx?Highlight=migrating
I learned the following:
1. BACKUP my "Template" and "Custom" directories and certain video files that are located elsewhere.
1. Uninstall from the old computer while on an active internet link with Reallusion before installing on the new otherwise I will run into a 5 installation limit which I could use up.
2. I can simply move the old files to the new computer
3. I can run the last upgrade/patch only. I do not need to run the initial install and all the upgrades/patches in between.

ICLONE 6 complicated this because.
1. There is a free Iclone 5 with a purchase of Iclone 6.
My Iclone6 was not "purchased". It was free because I bought a lot of products.
So does that mean I do not qualify to have both my old Iclone 5 and new Iclone 6.
If I can then I don't need to uninstall Iclone 5. So I can keep it on my old computer or move it to the new and keep the two copies. Will my account reflect the fact that I legally own two versions.

2. Since my Iclone6 is not an upgrade then I assume I can install it as new. Then register it and I will be responsible for manually moving the old files???
I am afraid that my files will be clobbered in the new installation if I don't move them myself.
