This is how RestoreX360 license activation works:
1. When you order RestoreX360, you’ll receive a Licensed Product ID which can be used to activate the number of PCs (licenses).
2. When you install RestoreX360 on a computer, RestoreX360 generates an Activation ID (machine ID). The Activation ID is associated with the PC’s hard disk serial number and it remains unchanged even if you format the system and reinstall Windows and RestoreX360.
3. When you activate RestoreX360, the Licensed Product ID and Activation ID are sent to the RestoreX360 license server. Based on the two IDs provided, the license server will generate and return an Activation Code..
If the Product ID does not exist in the license server (not a Licensed Product ID), the license server will return the message of “You have supplied an invalid product ID”. If the Licensed Product ID is authorized for 2 PCs and you already have 2 activation records (2 unique machine IDs in the license server database), the license server will return the message of “You have exceeded the maximum activation allowed” .
So you can see if you format the system and re-install RestoreX360, the Product ID will not change, the activation ID will not change, therefore the activation code will not change. You should have no problem to repeatedly install and activation RestoreX360 on the same PC. But if the hard disk changes reinstalling RestoreX360 on a new PC or changing a hard drive “the Activation Code (for the old hard disk) won’t work on the new one. We would need to release the Activation Code associated with the old hard disk, so you can activate the software on the new hard disk.
To request a transfer of RestoreX360 license to a new computer (hard disk), please send your licensed Product ID and inquiry to [email protected].
