Can I put Pro on my laptop as well as my desktop?

[swerdnaoz]

Hi

 

I have one copy of Pro. I put it on my desktop. I also have a laptop for traveling. Can I use the same keys to activate Pro on the laptop, or do I need alternate keys?

 

Thanks

Hello and , swerdnaoz:

 

Currently, MBAM PRO consumer licenses for personal use on home computers are lifetime and transferable, but they can only be used on one computer at a time.

 

So, if you wanted to use your one license on your laptop, you'd need to cleanly uninstall MBAM PRO with the removal tool from your desktop, install MBAM on the laptop and then use the license to activate PRO on the laptop.

When you return, you would do the reverse.

The procedure is explained here: How do I transfer a licensed Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO to my new computer?

 

It might be more efficient and feasible simply to purchase a 2nd license for use on the laptop.

Each computer would then have its own, lifetime, transferable consumer license.

 

Thanks for your interest and support.

 

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the advice.

 

Currently it's working OK on both types of computers with the same activation codes. That's quite strange given what you just said. Maybe one or the other of them will hiccup one day. I suppose I should get another download of PRO in case a hiccup happens, or flip the laptop back to Trial or Free until I want to travel again.

 

Anyway, thanks again, I understand the limitations a bit better now.

We are not actively enforcing that but it is still against the End User License Agreement and illegal to use it in that fashion.  All computers using the PRO version require they're own legally owned license.

 

Thank you.

Oh, I see, it's different from normal Microsoft. I thought if it was wrongly put inside it wouldn't work, like Windows and Excel and like that. I'm just a novice. I'll get another code, that should fix it.

 

Thanks again

You're quite welcome
