pjh42,

Could you be more specific? Are you using the free or paid version? If you are using the free version, just download the .exe from the 2nd computer or copy the installer .exe file from the 1st computer to a thumb drive or CD and install it on the 2nd computer. If you are using the paid version and you only bought one license, you can only use the paid version on one computer. You can still install the free version on the 2nd computer though. If you are in the latter situation, I would uninstall the paid version from the 1st computer and reboot, then install it on the 2nd computer using the license key.

I hope this helps,
Keith

Paid version. Can I use the ID and Key from the "About" window?

Thanks.

Yes, that should work :( . The ID and Key in the About tab will be the same ones you entered when it was installed.

Dear Admin,

Can you pin this topic, because yesterday I asked the same question (Move mbam (paid version) from laptop to desktop) & today another user has raised it.

As most mbam user's have more than 1 system this doubt will come.
