Are Purchased Computer Security Carried Over To A New Computer?
Right now I have McAfee Security on my laptop which will expire early next year. I’d like to buy a new laptop & get rid of the old one. But first, I will transfer all the files from my old computer to the new one.
Should I just let the contract lapse?
If you install the software on your new computer using the same pass code, it will allow you to use the remaining protection on the new computer. In the past, it has been my experience that when installing the software on a new computer, and it’s still within the contract period, you’ll get another year of protection on the new computer. I haven’t bought any new anti-virus software in about 5 years cuz I use free stuff, but if memory serves me correctly, I should be right.
