If you have vue 5 I, you can only upgrade to vue 6 I (or maybe downgrade to vue 6). You cannot reuse your copy of vue 5 to upgrade again to vue 5 I and get vue 6 for free. I know people have reported doing that but it is definitely not acceptable and a violation of license (once you upgrade from a version, you old version is supposed to be used for compatibility with only scenes, but it cannot be used to upgrade from it again). Besides, in your case, you wouldn't want to do that - you can upgrade from vue 5 i to vue 6 i for $299. Going from vue 5 E to vue 5 I and then to vue 6 I would set you back $399. There is no 'locking' of that nature in locked licenses. The term 'locked' is to be used by opposition to 'floating' licenses. You should be able to install vue on a new or reimaged machine without problem.
