Licence count with a dual boot system

soopytwist

In the new year I intend to set-up a dual booting system with my current Windows 7 on my existing SSD and Windows 10 on a new SSD. The main reason for this is for Oculus VR which no longer works properly under Win 7 but I don't want to fully switch to Win 10. My current Total Security 2019 licence (new this week) allows installation on five devices. Will installing BD on the Win 10 SSD count as one of those devices?

Hi, 



It should count as 2 license seats.

It is one system NOT two. Should protect you computer no matter how configured.

This is an older thread, here is a newer post concluding that it would be just one license used. If needed, on the lesser used partition, BD could be uninstalled and replaced with the Free version to free up that license seat.

I haven't run a dual boot in years, so I personally can't confirm it for you as an absolute.
