Dear Pix4D Support Team:
Currently, I have a problem when trying to deactivate remotely a device. The attached image shows the problem.
The issue is, I've never come across this kind of problem before but today I've just took my Desktop to a computer shop to get it repair, which I didn't really thought much about it when a technicians were doing a repair and so they've completely format the whole system, including "Pix4D Software". And so I reinstall the software, then trying re-login but it's telling me that I have 0/1 available device(s). So then I've been going through reading and following the instruction of "How to remotely deactivate a device"
And here's the result I'm getting.
Please is there any other way Pix4D Support Team could over come this problem? My license is 0c9c1211
Thank you
Kindest Regards
Benn, We have deactivated your device :)

Dear Support,
Just today we've been having problems with our workstation desktop, one of our workmate was working on our PC and we had no idea what and how he got our desktop filled with viruses.
So we quickly managed to save all the important files as much as we could. But we couldn't open up Pix4d software and saying that this file is been corupt, so it was too late for us to get in and signout the account.
Can you kindly solve this issues please.

Dear,
I can't deactivate one of my licences; it shows the word "NEVER". Could you deactivate it manually?
Kind regards,

Hey,
You need to log out from the software before enabling Remote device deactivation otherwise the remote deactivation will not work. I deactivated your device.

Hello,
Currently there is a desktop and a laptop that we at Marquette University use for our research that have the license activated with our account.
The laptop (COE-LAP-2443) is no longer operable as it was damaged by water. We would like the licence on the laptop to be remotely deactivated so that we can use the software on the new laptop we purchased.
Thank you.
Hello Walter, The device is deactivated from the license.
