Can I transfer my Unity Free License including all purchased Editor extensions to a new Computer?
Hey guys,
I am using Unity Free Edition for creating my own games, however I am not using this as an Organization, just all by myself. But my computer is already 5 years old by now and I would like to buy a new one rather soonish.
Now my question is: Editor Extensions from the Unity Asset Store require "per-seat" licenses. Can I somehow transfer my purchases to my new computer? And is there a way I can use the same Unity Free License on my new machine?
I never purchased any Editor Extensions before, but I was going to. So I have no idea whether they are bound to my account or my license.
To free up a license when switching to a different computer, do the following
Open Unity 4 or Unity 5. Click
"Help" (“File” on $$anonymous$$ac).
Click "$$anonymous$$anage License..."
Click "Return License".
As for the asset store. I think the purchases are linked to your account and not the license. I have logged to my Unity Asset Store account from a different computer, with a different OS and a different license and I was still able to download my paid assets from the store.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like you can, we've been trying to merge assets purchased across 2 accounts here and only found the following articles:

Looks like you need to grab the .unitypackage files out of the download folder and import them manually.
Then keep doing that in the future as packages are updated.
Painful.
