ArcGIS Software Mover is a tool designed to help users transfer ArcGIS software licenses from one computer to another. Here are the basic steps to move an ArcGIS license: 1. **Download ArcGIS Software Mover**: First, visit the Esri official website and log in to your account. In the "My Account" section, locate the "Downloads" or "Manage Licenses" area, and download the ArcGIS Software Mover tool. 2. **Run the Software Mover**: On the source computer (the one currently having ArcGIS installed), run the tool. You might need administrator privileges. 3. **Connect to the license server**: If your ArcGIS license is managed through a network license server, ensure you're connected to it. If using a standalone license, make sure the license file (.license or .ilf) is in the correct location. 4. **Select the license to move**: In the Software Mover interface, choose the ArcGIS product and license type you want to transfer. 5. **Save the license information**: Click "Save License" or a similar option to export the license information to a file (usually a .mvr file). 6. **Transfer the .mvr file**: Securely transfer the generated .mvr file to the target computer using a USB drive, email, or another file-sharing method. 7. **Run Software Mover on the target computer**: After installing ArcGIS software on the new computer, run ArcGIS Software Mover and load the saved .mvr file. 8. **Apply the license**: Select "Apply License," and the Software Mover will install the license information onto the new computer. 9. **Verify the license**: Once done, start the ArcGIS application to confirm that the license has been successfully transferred. Please note that the process may vary depending on your license type and management method. Always refer to the specific guidelines and instructions provided by Esri.

ArcGIS License Types

Before you migrate, become familiar with the types of ArcGIS Desktop software authorization.

ArcGIS offers three license types:

• Named User (ArcGIS only): This license type is specific to ArcGIS Pro and is the default license type for that product. You can use different types of licenses, but they must be converted through My Esri. • Single Use: A standalone license authorizes an individual to use ArcGIS Pro on a single machine, such as a desktop computer. It cannot be used on a second machine. • Concurrent Use: A floating license allows multiple users to share access to ArcGIS Desktop (from any computer or virtual machine on the network, including ArcGIS Pro).
