Registration and activation (also known as verification) are two different things. Registration is a one-time thing. Once you have registered your serial number, you no longer need to register it again.

If you are moving InstallShield from one machine to another, you need to first uninstall it from the first machine. When you uninstall it, it is deactivated. Then when you install it on the new machine, you need to perform the activation (verification) again. For more information, see the following help topics:

I have try to reinstall IS2008 again after complete all install progress(with my SN), I lunch IS2008 the installer always tell me "Trial license has expired", when I click "OWN" link, I still can't Verify my SN,
I will try offline activation later.

If there is an old trial license installed on my machine, When I reinstall IS2008 with new SN the setup program update the old trial license I'm right?

Hi,

What DebbieL says as -" first uninstall IS2008 from existing / old machine and during the uninstall, it's deactivated' may be correct.

But it will not applicable to my case, as my old machine got crashed and NOT possible to do the uninstall and deactivate before going to a new machine.

Suggestions please.

Thanks,
