Hi there,
Looking to buy a new version of Corel Videostudio 2018 Pro (at the moment full price at £89.99). I would like to use it on both laptops. Do I need to buy a separate licence for each laptop?
Thanks,
Leszek

Re: How many computers per one licence?
The End User License Agreement (EULA) for Video Studio only permits the use of the program on one computer. This is probably because they are supposed to pay licence fees to third parties who provide some of the codecs or plug-ins used in the program each time it is installed on a computer. However, we have no idea if or how Corel police this. But in strictly legal terms, yes you are supposed to buy two copies of the program -- with separate serial numbers -- if you intend to install on two computers.
