I'm not as sure.

Purchasing the full program is different from purchasing an update. Dan is correct that the activation system was not used in 2012. Still, I think I would take my installation routine from 2012 and put that onto the new computer, then purchase the update for 2021. The update may require something already on your computer. Not sure given how much time has elapsed.

Live Chat on Monday should work for this, or just call Sales.
