Transfer Plugins to new Device

Transfer Plugins to new Device

If you bought a new computer, set up a new operating system or installed an update, you need to reactivate the licenses for your HOFA plugins.
It should be noted that when you purchase a product from HOFA-Plugins, you receive two licenses that can be used on different systems at the same time. In most cases, at least one old license has to be deactivated from the previous device to unlock it and use it on the new system.

This can also be done remotely from the new device. That means that the licenses do not necessarily have to be deactivated from the device they are on. This is helpful in cases of theft or data loss.
To move the licenses to a new system, you should make sure that they have been deactivated on the old computer first, as described here.
You can then activate the licenses and install the plugins on your new system using the HOFA-Plugins Manager, as shown here.
