I am wanting to upgrade my C Drive on my computer. Do I have to uninstall all my Reallusion products first and then reinstall, or can I just do a drive copy and the actvations will be there.

If you do a drive copy (sector by sector) it will be an exact duplicate of the original drive and everything will work.
With a drive copy to a larger disk size you will probably have to extend the partition to encompass the extra space beyond the original disk size.

It is important to "clone" the drive rather than just copy. Because it is your system drive it needs to be bootable, obviously. Once you've done that, it should work.
I have done it once and I googled for instructions. There are various tools that let you clone.
If it doesn't work for some reason, you would need to put your old drive back and uninstall your RL products.
Then put your new drive back in and install your RL products. Before you do that, it is probably best to delete the Reallusion folder under C:\Program Files, as this will be recreated when you install.
Content you don't need to reinstall. If it is on your C: drive it will already have been copied over.

Make sure you create a backup before you do your upgrade.
It is a paid solution, but I like Acronis. It makes everything simple (backups, cloning disks, bootable media, etc.). I’ve used it on over 30 machines and definitely recommend it if you have $50 to spend.

Thanks, I think I have some cloning software that I bought a couple years ago.
