Switching Versions from Educational to Personal

I downloaded the Personal Use version because I will soon retire from my university position and will (presumably) no longer qualify for the Education License.  But the installer appears to have simply updated my Education License version, I am happy with that but am concerned that I will be unable to renew the license after my university credentials expire and/or will lose access to files. Can you (somebody) reassure me that I will not lose access to files and/or explain what I need to do to ensure that my files can be transferred to a Personal Use version if/when my Edu access expires. Thanks.

Hi,

You don't need a reinstallation.
If your EDU version has expired, you will receive a notification.
A 30-day test phase with full access then starts automatically.
In the end, either the personal license will be activated automatically or you can proceed as shown in the screenshot.

Even if the switch should fail, your data will be preserved.
