Transfer to new computer
If I buy a new computer can I transfer the software to it without purchasing again? I understand that I will most likely not be able to use it on the old computer. Correct? How would I accomplish the transfer?

No, that isn't correct. The QCAD License is a User based License what means you can use it on the old, the new and every other computer. Requirement is that only the owner of that License works with that specific QCAD application.David Des wrote:I understand that I will most likely not be able to use it on the old computer. Correct?
Install QCAD to the other computer and use (copy) the qcad3.ini or QCAD3.conf to transfer all custom settings. Which file has to be used depends on your OS.David Des wrote:If I buy a new computer can I transfer the software to it without purchasing again?
