Is this possible to do without having to repurchase?

I recently bought a new laptop which runs Windows instead of Mac and I went to install CS5 and my serial number won't work

I don't think I should have to rebuy it just because I changed laptops 😕😕

    No.  Your Mac license will not work on a Windows machine and the version is too old to qualify for a platform swap.  Adobe does not sell older versions of their software so you don't have to worry about buying it again unless you can find some third party vendor selling it.
