PC Crashed - Installing on new PC or HDD

My PC with one of my installed CC Suite licenses seems to have died. I'm in the process of assessing whether I need a new PC or a new internal HDD.

I have one install on a Mac (that I want to retain), but wondered if I can just download the 'PC installation' on the new PC or HDD and authorise with my CC sign in?

Will I need to 'deauthorise' the previous installation?

I can't access any of the CC software to deauthorise it manually from the dead PC, and am wondering if I try to reinstall on a new machine if the system will just say I am over my licence limit because I haven't previously deauthorised one installation?

Many thanks

Thanks Sheena - that's really useful as a guide to downloading the apps again.

Will I be permitted to download the CC Suite again? If I do this on either a new PC or new HDD, will I have to somehow 'deauthorise' a previous installation. As I say, my PC with my previous installation has died so I can deauthorise any software previously downloaded.
