The Alchemy CATALYST license you activated is tied to the MAC address of the computer's hardware. Deactivating will permanently disable the license on the current PC.
Once deactivated, it is possible to activate it again on a different computer at any time.

This populates the Deactivation Output field with your license specific deactivation code and deletes your license file.
