Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 6 Mac to Windows?

Question

Hi All,

My Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 6 is currently installed on my Macbook Pro that is almot 10 years old and starting to die on me. I've been thinking about getting a simple Windows 10 Desktop as a replacement, but I would like to make sure I could bring my LR catalog/program over with me. I've sent a few messages to Adobe Help, but thye have yet to reply. Does anyone know or have experience with switching operating systems? My product serial/key has only ever been used on my one computer and I know you can sometimes set up programs on two with the same key, but I've seen mixed things about switching between operating systems. Any advice, how-to's, or other information is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

You can move your catalogue and images to any computer at any time, it could be both Mac and Windows, doesn;t matter.

What you need to do is copy your catalogue and images to an external drive (if it's not there already) and then when you mve to another computer just double-click on the catalogue to open it.
