If the W7 is upgraded to W10, de-activate Poser before the upgrade or you will lose one of the three activations you can use with P11. It happened to me and there is no way "I" can get that activation back. SM, or now Rendo; would have to release the lost activation after the OS upgrade. I now have two available seats for Poser and have lost the one on my i7 rendering machine.

It's a good thing you mentioned this. I de-activated it via Poser, then checked the SM site and it had two activations listed already. So I cleared those out and now I should be free and good to go.

Now I just have to make sure any other software I use doesn't need the same thing done. Oh boy is this a painful process. 😅
