Installing to NEW PC

Hi

 

I am swapping to a new PC.  So, I need to install the Autodesk manufacturing collections, including Autodesk Inventor.

 

Before installing, Do I need to remove it from my previous PC?

 

What are the other things need to do?

 

Thanks

 

Kiri

It's not necessary to uninstall from a previous PC. If you are only running one subscription and one PC is active at a time you're ok:

You may need to sign in to your Autodesk account in the new PC to make sure it activates that subscription on the new PC while using your software.

A little more about this here:

I don't even think you need to log out of your previous PC. Inventor will check to make sure you're not running the same license on several machines at once, but if that old machine is switched off then it's going to be fine.
