I have Mathcad Prime 8.0, and I would like to install it on my new computer. I am okay with uninstalling it on the computer it is currently on. When I installed it on my new computer, I got a watermark across the page instead of just the footer. How can I proceed with installing it on my new computer without the watermark across the page?

"Mathcad Express Watermark": https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad-Ideas/Mathcad-Express-Prime-6-amp-7-Watermark/idc-p/774638/highlight/true#M1569

Quote: "Mathcad Express is a free version of the product - even though there's a lot of functionality reserved for the commercial version, there's a lot you can do with Express. With Prime 6, we made the decision to change the location and display of the watermark in Express based on multiple business reasons. This was not an impulsive decision and was made after a number of discussions based on various aspects of our product and business. Like before, the watermark can be removed by pointing the application to a valid license".

I am sorry if I wasn't clear.  I have a valid student license for the old computer.  What I want to do is deactivate the license on the old computer and use it on the new computer.  Is that possible?
