Title: george and w/c pro handover
Post by: jouk45 on July 14, 2009, 07:52:42 pm
when you buy george and w/c pro do we actualy own that software competly, say you where to sell your w/c business, most of  our info would be stored on those software, could we hand that software over to the new owner wth all the info, or is it only the person who bought the software that can keep it,

Generally with these things you buy a license for use on one computer. The license is owned by you but there're usually terms and conditions that mean you can't sell this licesne on.

Just remembered. Can't comment on George but with WCP, the license is tied to the PC you install it on. So if you buy a new PC, theoretically you'd have to buy a new license to run WCP on it. I had an issue when I upgraded from Windows XP to Windows Vista but thankfully Ian at WCP sorted it out for me.

Hi Guys,

I think this is also true of George but the license is valid for 'use' on one PC. If you change your machine then its no hassle to transfer the license.

Thanks

Ian
