Question

Reinstall Lightroom 6 after harddisk crash

Dear all.

After a crash of my harddisk I would like to reinstall LR 6 on the new SSD drive. I thought if I installed a 7 day trial version I would be able to activate the trial version to an official version by entering my licence key. But I can't see where to do this. Maybe this is because the way I went is the wrong one?

 

Could someone overhere inform me how to proceed to reactivate my license please?

 

Thanks in adance.

Which operating system do you use?

Normally the installation program asks during the installation for the serial number. If you enter a valid number and you don't have activate your license to often Lightroom will be activated.

Which installer do you have try? I think you have been used the Creative Desktop Client.

 

Please download the appropriate installer from here:
