Best Answer

If a physical disk was purchased at a retail store installation can be done by using the same disk/serial number, if this is an electronic copy just back up the installer file to disk. Use the same serial numbers if needed to reinstall the software. If activating the product was required you may have to contact the manufacturer to reactivate the product.
