Super_Spartan 56 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 With other AVs, you can login to your user control panel and see which PC is using the license and be able to remove it so you can like install that license on another computer. How does ESET know who is using my license? Like what if I install my license on a computer, then formatted that computer, then later installed it on another computer, but the number of active users using the license never exceeds my limitation, how would ESET know or keep track of these things? One thing I love about ESET is that it has never blacklisted my license for as many formats/reinstallations I've done whereas other companies would blacklist the key and you would have to wait until they reset the activation limit for you. I am happy, but just curious how does this great system work PS: I just upgraded my license from a 3 user to a 5 user license just to support ESET although I am currently using my license only on 1 PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Solution Marcos 5,074 Posted October 25, 2014 Administrators Solution Share Posted October 25, 2014 As long as you use your username/password to update ESET on as many computers as you have purchased your license for, this is not a problem. We don't track home users' license usage in any special way but can detect license overuse and act accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Spartan 56 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Smart. I have to commend ESET for having such a flexble yet secure system for license monitoring. No other AV gives this easy of re-installations. I am a person who formats a lot the moment I get a glitch, I'm OCD, I don't try to fix it, instead, I format.

rugk 397 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Anyway a kind of "Online license managment" would be nice. See this topic: Delete Eset Licences From A Device Or Move It To Another Device / Online License Managment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Spartan 56 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 Well I've been using NOD32 for more than 8 years and it never bothered me about saying that I have exceeded the re-activation limit or blacklisted my license so I think that's not needed to be honest as long as the current system works and gives no headaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomFace 539 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Hello Klunten. Take a look at this knowledgebase article on how to transfer a ESET product. I think that is what you are asking. hxxp://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN2213&actp=search&viewlocale=en_US&searchid=1423578094143 Edited February 10, 2015 by TomFace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
