Dudester22 Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 I want to install DCS World and all my modules to another computer but I'm not sure how to do this. Do I have to deactivate all my modules on the computer they are installed on at present and how would I do that? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

That should be described in the module Quickstart manuals (i.e. "DCS A-10C Quickstart Manual").
Phantom453 Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 Launch DCSW Multiplayer while holding down the Shift key. This will bring up the Module Activation window. Third paragraph down there is a link to deactivate your modules. They cycle through one at a time to deactivate (although last time I did this I had trouble with BS2).
PeterP Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 (edited) You will find a very detailed and pictured instruction how to do it in the A10C QuickStart Guide EN.pdf Windows Start >> All Programs >> Eagle Dynamics > DCS World > Documentation > A10C QuickStart Guide EN.pdf or ..\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\A-10C\Doc\A10C QuickStart Guide EN.pdf Page 10 Edited August 14, 2013 by PeterP
Irregular programming Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 As said it's outlined in the manual, you can keep them installed but it will cost you an activation point.
Maverick-X Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 In the case my system is damaged and has to be reinstalled, I lose one activation, right? Is it possible to regain activations over the years?

Is it possible to regain activations over the years? This info can be also found in the QuickStart Guide on page 3 Activation Using the activation number provided (on back of Quick Start Guide or provided by online store), you will be required to activate your game purchase prior to flying a mission. During the Activation process, the copy protection system will create a hardware profile of your system and compare that to your current system each time you start the game. If there has been a significant change to your computer, like replacing significant hardware items or changing your Operating System, you may be required to reactivate your purchase. Each game license (disk) has 10 activations and 10 deactivations. You can activate your game up to 10 times. The number of installations is unlimited! This game also allows Activations Automatically (“AAA”) technology that enables you to create a new activation once every 31 days. This ensures that you can still play the game, even if Eagle Dynamics no longer exists someday. This function is enabled after all 10 default activations have been used. If the copy protection system detects changes to your computer hardware/software as described below, an activation will be required. It's important to note that deactivations are utilized to save your activations when altering your PC hardware/software. Before conducting a PC upgrade/OS re-install, you can deactivate the product and when complete, reactivate without a loss of activations. Again though, you can install the game as much as you wish. http://www.star-force.com/support/users/deactivate/ Edited August 14, 2013 by PeterP 1
