You would be able to open/recover it on other system and such system changes is allowed for four times. Read this her carefully and take a call if you wish to buy license: Personal Edition FAQs

Are you getting a message window like below (while trying to open the qvw file in another system):

If so, check the 'Yes..' option below and press 'Continue'. However, I insist you to read the link carefully and understand what you are trying to do before you actually do it.

Hi Firat,

I think maybe you can open the qvw without data,below the recent, right click the file name, select the open and without data.

Thanks,

Gary

Hi Firat,

Open a qvw file on your new computer. When asked the question about recovering the file select Yes then continue. Now this document and others originating on your old PC will be recognised as your own when opened on the new PC. They won't open with data already loaded, you will need to perform a reload for each one.

Important: Don't do this for any qvw from other PCs or you will lose access to these files again. You can recover once more but there is a limit of four recoveries. Also if you copy a recovered file back to your old PC it won't open there without being recovered because QV will now recognise the document as one created on the new PC not the original.

Good luck

Andrew
