Hello forums,

Wondering about if I completely remove adobe programs and everything off my pc will it be brand new if i re download it again? Or does adobe like save my pc number in a way I cant use free trial or something. Because I want to show my brother adobe after effects but the trial ended before he came back from college. So I just want to use the trial version one more time to show him so is this possible?? Because, he said he will buy it for me if I'm good at it. Can anyone help?

No, you cannot re-use a trial version again on the same PC. If it was that simple, everyone would do it all the time. You’d have to re-format the hard drive first.

Or use the trial on a different PC.

You could subscribe for a month on a month-to-month plan (not an annual plan). You could then cancel without penalty and have 30 days to explore After Effects.

How would I be able to reformat it? Do you have any video tutorials of this or any other forums to help me with that process because I do not own another pc in my household and he said he would only buy it for me if he can see im good at it using trial

You need to find a Windows forum to learn how to manage your computer

Do be aware that formatting the drive means wiping EVERYTHING off the drive, so you must start by installing Windows and then all of your programs

That is NOT something that should be attempted by someone who does not know what formatting a drive means
