Hello, I have the adobe package for students, I need to reboot my computer and still be able to reinstall the programs I use as a student of design. Is it possible to reboot windows 10 and keep adobe programs?

thanks in advance

You do know that "reboot" is restarting your computer, or shutting it off and turning it back on... both of which do nothing to your installed programs?

Do you mean you are going to wipe your hard drive and install everything fresh?

If the 2nd, you need to deactivate before wiping, then do your fresh install

For Microsoft/Windows, the English word is Format... with the same meaning
