# Move cloud licence

You can change the licence server that hosts your cloud container quickly and easily, without any input from our support team.

However, it's worth noting that your cloud container (.wbc file) can be installed on up to two machines at any one time.

A licence transfer between servers consists of the following two steps:

#### 1. Removing the licence from the server to be decommissioned

If you wish to (re)move the cloud container, this can be done programmatically using a **Windows** **Command Prompt**. Please run one of the following, depending on your installation:

```powershell
"C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeMeter\Runtime\bin\cmu32.exe" --delete-cmcloud-credentials --serial <mask>-<serial>
```

Or

```powershell
"C:\Program Files\CodeMeter\Runtime\bin\cmu32.exe" --delete-cmcloud-credentials --serial <mask>-<serial>
```

Where <mask>-<serial> is the WIBU ID found on the left-hand side of CodeMeter Control Center. For example, a cloud container with ID 140-2454644478 can be removed with the following:

```powershell
"C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeMeter\Runtime\bin\cmu32.exe" --delete-cmcloud-credentials --serial 140-2454644478
```

#### 

#### 2. Adding the licence to the new server

To add your cloud licence (.wbc file) to a new server, refer to the [Cloud licence activation](https://help.floodmodeller.com/docs/cloud-licence-activation) article.

If you need to obtain the .wbc file again, please contact the Flood Modeller Support Team.
