A key must be Disabled to transfer to another machine, or to create a new key when you update your license.

The computer must be connected to the internet to disable a key. This connection is required so the key can be disabled in your Derivative account which allows you to create a new key for another computer.

  1. Open the Key Manager Dialog under the Dialogs menu.
  2. Select the Disable option along the top of the Key Manager Dialog.
  3. The list below shows the currently valid keys. Select the key you want to disable by clicking on it.
  4. Click the Disable Key button. If the key was successfully disabled in your account (on the Derivative servers) and locally it will be removed from the list and is now ready to use on another computer.
