First, you need to deactivate the license on your old device. As the device is now offline, you need to do a forced deactivation from the License details page.
Next, open the MinimServer configuration web page on the new device and select the License tab, then select Activate full license. Enter your email address and license code and follow the prompts to activate the license and restart MinimServer.

Hi Simon,
The old NAS could be started but it would take some work since I have removed it from server cupboard. How can I do anything from the license page, forced or otherwise? I just need the license code again if possible please.

I have resent your license certificate email, originally sent on 16th September 2025. Please keep this information somewhere safe for future reference.
