Yesterday i installed my new package CS6 on a new computer. But today i exchanged that new PC with CS6 installed on it, for another one.  The first one will be formatted. I suppose that my SC6 on the firts computer is considered as deactivated? Thank you for an answer.

    Hi,

    You can deactivate the CS6 from the machine which you want to format.

    Simply launch any software like photoshop or indesign CS6 etc, click on help menu on the top, and then click on deactivate.

    This will deactivate the whole suite and you don't need to do the same steps for all the softwares.

    Thanks

    Thank you for your answer,

    But I didn't knew that I would leave the first PC with the seller and return home with another one, so I didn't deactivate myself.  And I hope that formatting the hard disk by the seller himself, is a valid deactivation for Adobe...

    Hi,

    Formatting the hard disk will not automatically deactivate the software. You will have to deactivate it first and then format the machine.

    Thanks
