The computer I have is getting old.  Is there a way to transfer the revit program to another computer?

Just install it on the new computer.  Your license permits installation on 3 devices.  

 

...or is this about not having a license?

I dont want the revit program on my old computers.  I want the programs to run on another new computer.

What's preventing you from installing the software on the new computer?

I believe Revit 19 license only allows three computers to be installed.  If I wanted to get rid of one of the computers and install it on another computer, I would be out of licenses because now there will be 4 computers, not 3 computers. 

 

Would I be able to just uninstall the Revit 19 from one of the old computers so that I can just install it on another new computer.  Or, does the software recognize that 3 computers were already installed with the same license number, even if I uninstalled the software from one of the 3 computers?  And this means I would not be able to install it on a new computer, right?

 

How do I install it on another new computer?  Not sure what the terminology is, but I believe it's called transferring the revit license to another computer so that it recognizes that only 3 computers have the same license number.

Computers are rather expensive... so I dont want to make an expensive purchase if it's not possible to even install the program.

You better reinstall Revit 2019 to a new computer NOW. Once Revit 2022 coming out in April 2021, Revit 2019 may not be available for you to download anymore.
