Hi. What happens if I install Adobe Lightroom CC on my current laptop then buy a new one? Will it still work on the new laptop?

Thanks for that John. My current laptop runs as fast as I do, so I'm guessing what you're saying is, yes, I can use it on a new laptop when this one dies?

Yes. Providing your new laptops meet the system requirements to run the software, you can install/uninstall, deactivate/reactivate the software as many times as you like provided you don't have any more than two computers activated at any one time.
