Reinstallation - Transfer of license

If you plan to transfer your license from a computer to another one, a reinstallation tool is provided. This tool uninstalls the version information from your computer and gives you the ability to obtain, free of any charge, a new activation key for your new computer.

Label Power cannot be asked for a free of charge activation key in case of a hard disk failure, virus or other. It is your own responsibility to protect your computer.
