Purchased new computer - attempting to reload Photoshop Lightroom

I have purchased a new computer as it appears that was about to crash.

I have previously purchased a legal copy of Lightroom and have been using it on the older computer.

I cannot identify how to re-load my purchased copy of Lightroom on to my new computer.

I have the 24 digit Serial Number.

I do not use the old computer other than viewing old images on it.  I am happy to "deactivate" access on the old computer if I can activate this new computer.

Can you please advise?   Very frustrated.

I am a hobby/family photographer....and would love to get back into Lightroom.

Thankyou

Paul

    Which version of Lightroom?

    You can download the installer from Install Photoshop Lightroom

    Install then enter your serial number.

    If you're running Lightroom 6 on the old computer than you'll have to deactivate it to free up one activation. Older versions of Lightroom did not have any activation mechanism.

    Thank you very much – it worked.

    I could not find the link (you provided) or anything close to assistance on the Adobe webpage.

    Very much appreciated.
