    New to SimTools, so I'm testing on an old PC before I buy a new gaming PC later this year.

    If I activate the SimTools license on my old PC now, can I de-activate it from the old PC, and when I get my new PC, re-activate it there?

    Cheers,
    Sammy.

    All licenses come with a backup activation incase of a PC crash.
    So you will be fine.

    But once you get your new PC, please remove SimTools from the old PC, then give me a shout.
    I will bump up your activations, so you don't loose you backup activation buddy.

    Take care,

    Thanks for that! What's the best way to contact you to bump up the activation?
