    If you need to transfer |popy|, you may need to deactivate its licence first before activating it on another machine. :ref:`open_a_popy_command_prompt` and type:-

    .. code-block:: console

        $ popy_deactivate
        
    You can check if this worked by typing:-

    .. code-block:: console

        $ popy_info
        
    You should see something like:-

    .. code-block:: console

        INFO - product_key=None
        
    In the output.
