Answer:

Each of our user licenses A single user license can be installed on up to two devices. So technically, you can just install on the new device and stop the old deviceOnce you reach your activation limit, you will be unable to activate your license on a different device.
However, if you are not going to use Xshell on your old device, I recommend you uninstall Xshell from it. This way, it let's say you are decommissioning one of your devices and you'd like to move your Xshell license to a new device. You can follow these steps.
  1. Uninstall Xshell on the device you will no longer be using Xshell.
    This will return an activation count to your activation pool so it can be allocated elsewhere.

  2. Install and

...

  1. activate Xshell on your new device.


Note: If you reformat your device without first uninstalling Xshell, the activation count will not return to your pool and that activation count will be lost. Always uninstall Xshell before reformatting your device.
