2. How to move activation code from one computer to the other?

If the license is activated on one computer, but you want to use this license on the other computer, you need to return this license first, and then activate it on the other computer. Returning the license is an online process and takes a minute or so only.

3. Why we need to return license?

Once the license is activated, ZWCAD License Center knows it has been used. This license needs to be returned to ZWCAD License Center first if you want to activate it on a different computer. (For the stand-alone license code, one copy means one license, for the network license code, one node means one license. Each license stands one set of ZWCAD.)
