If your computer was damaged, lost, replaced, or upgraded, you may be able to move your OfficeSuite Lifetime license to a new device, depending on the specific version you own.
Important: Not All Lifetime Licenses Can Be Moved
Having a Lifetime license does not automatically mean it can be transferred to another computer.
Some older OfficeSuite Lifetime licenses are transferable and can be moved between PCs (one device at a time), while others are device-bound and remain permanently linked to the first computer where they were activated.
Use the guide below to check whether your license is eligible for transfer.

If the original computer is replaced, lost, damaged, or no longer accessible, the license cannot be transferred to a new PC.

- Go to Subscriptions and Products and locate your Lifetime license.

- Sign in using the same email address linked to your license.
- Once signed in, your license will activate automatically.
FAQ
I have a Lifetime license. Can I move it to another computer?
Not always. Having a Lifetime license does not automatically mean it is transferable. Some Lifetime licenses are movable, while others are device-bound and cannot be transferred to a new PC.
My old computer stopped working. Can I still move my license?
You can move your license only if you have an eligible transferable Lifetime plan. Device-bound licenses cannot be reactivated on another computer, even if the original device is no longer usable.
How do I know which license I have?
You can check your product name in your MobiSystems Account under Subscriptions and Products. If you are unsure which account your license is linked to or experience activation issues, please contact Support and include your purchase details so we can assist further.
