    Since your computer died before you could deactivate your second copy, you'll have to contact Adobe to reset your activation count

    you can reach Adobe support Mon - Fri  5am - 7pm  (US Pacific Time) via Chat or Phone

    -or-

    If you are not a CC subscriber while you are signed in with your Adobe ID click on the link below

    Activation and deactivation troubleshooting

    Is the app installed on too many computers?

        

    If you purchased a single license for Adobe software, you can install the app on two computers. However, you can use it on only one computer at any given time. To install the app on a third computer, you must deactivate the app on one of the first two computers.

    Ensure that you are connected to the Internet, launch the app you want to deactivate, and
    choose Help > Deactivate. For detailed instructions, see Activate and deactivate Adobe products.

    If you want to run an app on multiple computers simultaneously, purchase another license from the Adobe store.

        

    Have you lost access to your previous computer?

        

    If you cannot access the previous computer on which you installed the app—whether it was stolen, was lost, crashed, or locked—you need to contact us by chat or phone. To ensure a quick resolution, be sure to have any purchase-related information ready.

    What exact version of LR are you using?

    You will more than likely have to contact Adobe to have your activation's reset.

    Contact Customer Care

    Through there you can start a chat session.
