I had Trados 2019 on my laptop and then upgraded to 2022. Trados 2019 stopped working for reasons I do not know but I didn't research it further as I wasn't using it. Now I have bought a new PC were I will install the 2022 version, so I want to use the 2019 version with my old laptop. I considered reinstalling it, but there is no license or activation code for this version! Do they expire?
Kindly note that once the upgrade is completed, you will no longer have access to the previous version, which in your case is 2019. Currently, you hold a single license. If you wish to use a second license on a different PC, you will need to purchase an additional license.
All the best,
Lucian
Hello, thank you for informing me. So, if Trados 2019 has issues, I can't just uninstall and reinstall it because I don't have a license. But if it is running, I can use it as long as I want. Do I understand correctly?
When upgrading, SDL allow you to continue using your previous version under certain criteria - allowing a smooth migration process to the latest version.
If you wish to keep the previous (2019) FREELANCE license on the same machine as Studio 2022 or on a separate one -
PLEASE DO NOT deactivate 2019 license in Studio-
Only process the upgrade in your account. A deactivated license cannot be reset!
You may continue to use the legacy version until-
-you attempt to migrate the software to a new PC/ cloud storage etc.
-deactivate the license (intentionally or by mistake)
-upgrade your OS
-reformat your hard drive
If you wish to keep your legacy license permanently, you will need to purchase a new license and NOT an upgrade.

Lucian
