Depending on when and where you got your Soda PDF license, you may have a license key or your product may be managed through your Soda PDF Account.
This article will cover the following topics:
Transferring an account-based license
Your license is linked to your Soda PDF account. When you sign in to Soda PDF on your new device, your license will transfer automatically, but you need to unassign your product from your old device first. If you don't unassign your product before connecting to your new device, the free version will be activated.
- Open our Account Portal.
- Sign in using the email and password from your Soda PDF account.
- Open the Products tab.
- Click on the arrow under the product you want to transfer.
- Click on the laptop icon.
- Click on the X next to your current device.
- Your license will now be unassigned from this device, so you can activate it on a different PC!
Transferring a License Managed with a License Key
Soda PDF license keys are valid for 1 use at a time. There are a few other circumstances that can require us to reset your license key, such as reformatting or upgrading Windows. This includes purchases made with partners like Humble Bundle.
If you want to transfer your license key to a new computer, you'll need to:
- Contact our support team.
- Provide them with your previous key, order ID, or purchase details of Soda PDF.
They will reset your license key.
