      So i'm wanting to know how I can remove a pfSense activation code once used.

      What if I delete the VM that the activation code is used on and reinstall and want to assign the same activation code? Will it work or do I need to deactivate it somewhere first?

      Thanks

        @deanfourie The code is non-transferable. You need to request a new code -- they work once and are permanently applied to that NDI of the system they were used on.

          @rcoleman-netgate ok thanks.

          Do we request a new code with the same email and details etc?

          Thanks
