i don't understand.  remove programs on the new machine that are on the old one.   My new one is a brand new device.  I had to install (old versions of ProSeries for convenience.  Otherwise I have new Microsoft Office (came with the computer.)  On the old one, I paid for it annually.  So that is a completely different account.  I do have Avast (everything on both computers for security)  So I dont understand how removing programs from the new computer would help.  Please advise.
