In this article Stu explains how to unregister your BiteFX for Windows software* Whenever BiteFX is installed on a computer, to enable continuous use of the software it must be registered using a 16-digit serial number provided at the time of the software order placement (see [How to Register Your BiteFX Software](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/how-to-register-your-bitefx-software)). There are a variety of reasons why it may be necessary to unregister BiteFX from a computer including: - **A computer is being replaced** - **The computer's hard drive has failed or is failing** - **A computer is no longer used in the office** In order to preserve the serial number used for that registration, BiteFX enables the user to unregister the serial number so that it may be used to register a new installation of BiteFX.  Here's how it's done. 1. Start the BiteFX application. 2. Click on the **Menu** button to display the drop down menu list ![describe the image](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/hs-fs/file-24799548-jpg/images/menu-button.jpg?width=250&height=206&name=menu-button.jpg) 1. Click on "**BiteFX Registration**". ![Menu List to BiteFX Registration V4](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Unregister%20BiteFX/Menu%20List%20%20to%20BiteFX%20Registration%20V4.png?width=250&name=Menu%20List%20%20to%20BiteFX%20Registration%20V4.png) 1. A **BiteFX Registration** dialog will appear with the email address used to purchase the software and the serial number that was used to register BiteFX. Click on "**Unregister**". ![BiteFX_Registration_Dialog_Red_Box](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/hubfs/Register_BiteFX_Blog_Images/BiteFX_Registration_Dialog_Red_Box.png) 1.  The next two screens will appear in rapid sequence: ![Unregistering_Checking_Server](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/hubfs/Register_BiteFX_Blog_Images/Unregistering_Checking_Server.png) ![Remove_License_Dialog](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/hubfs/Register_BiteFX_Blog_Images/Remove_License_Dialog.png)   1.

Click on "**OK**" to close the verification screen. ![Unregistration_Successful_Screen](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/hubfs/Register_BiteFX_Blog_Images/Unregistration_Successful_Screen.png) 1.

To complete the process, click on "**Exit**" and the following screen will appear: ![Unlicensed_Use_Screen](https://hubspot.bitefx.com/hubfs/Register_BiteFX_Blog_Images/Unlicensed_Use_Screen.png) 1.
