I had a similar issue in that I had a catstrophic failure that destroyed my Desktop PC HD, I had the Tokyo Promo Starter edition installed and all the serials backed up on NAS, but I can no longer activate the Starter Promo license even on the same PC that has the same name. What is the point of an license that never expires if you can't activate / register it? Now support tells me the Starter Promo registration limit is reached, 3 Registration limit, even though I am trying to re-register / re-activate on the same PC. I gather the problem is that I have re-installed it more than once on either Desktop or Laptop. Similary, I have a laptop that also has Tokyo Starter Promo installed, but there appears to be no possible way to deactivate and transfer that license back to the Desktop. I got some advice that I should have had the *.slip files backed up as well and ready for restoration, they are stored in the hidden %ProgramData% folder. I've done that for the laptop now, I suppose that will get blocked as part of a future update.
