Reinstallation of Trados Studio 2019 to 2024 in Windows 11

Question

I am finally rebuilding a new system in Windows 11. I will keep my older Windows 10 system for now, to make sure I don't lose any data. 
 Now, before deactivating my licences from Studio 2019/2021/2024 on Win 10 (as some clients still require the use of older versions), I wanted to double check if I will be able to reactivate them. I vaguely remember that running 2 older versions (was it 2019 and 2021, or 2017 and 2019, I'm not sure) was only possible with a specific compatibility module. I just want to avoid deactivating a licence, and not being able to reactivate it on the new system.

Hi Daniel Ernwein , 
 I'm afraid not, you no longer have an activation code for it. Once you process an upgrade, the activation code generated is for the upgraded edition, not for the previous one. 
 You can use 2 consecutive editions on the same computer at the same time, because the previous one activates via the current one, like Sorin indicated above: " the versions you will be able to use on the new system are: 2024, 2022 and 2021 (with the 2022 license but not at the same time with 2022)." 
 Kind regards, 
 Anca

Hello Daniel Ernwein 
 You currently have 2 licenses for 2022 and 2024 so the versions you will be able to use on the new system are: 2024, 2022 and 2021 (with the 2022 license but not at the same time with 2022). 
 Thank you, 
 Sorin
