Hello everyone!

Zbrush has a cool feature in where you can disable the license on your PC and transfer it to another. This is handy if you are a multi PC user like myself. I often take my work with me on my Laptop to work while away from home or if I want to work on some art while watching TV in the Living Room. Or lets say I want to the work in a comfortable setting and then want to to take it to my PC for a stronger system and have the PC be the rendering workhorse.

Zbrush has a great feature where you can disable the key online then re-enable it on a different computer via web activation. This Verifies the key, Owner, and whether or not the Key is active on a different PC. If your credentials check out, then you can activate the license on a new PC, Provided that the Previous PC version has been disabled.

That would indeed be cool. Unfortunately IClone does not have that feature. You can install on up to two PCs. If that's not enough, you have to uninstall first on one PC while connected to the internet (to release a seat) and then install on your desired PC. So that is a hassle.

You don't have to actually uninstall but this is recommended.

Please see the link below for how to manually deactivate the license from one of your two allowed computers. However there is a limit on the number of times you can do this so only use this method when absolutely essential.
