Unity Licence CDKey - Activation on the same machine
Hello Unity friends! I have a question regarding the activation: I can't access to windows due to a blue screen, so I'll need to format windows.
Now I was wondering if in the case I reinstall Unity, the licence is valid on the same machine with the same keycode (so if the licence is bound to the hardware or to the software)
thanks in advance!

There's a high likelyhood of it breaking the unique ID Unity generated, so you'll have to reactivate (you have two unless you release an activation manually). If it happens, support should be able to sort you out pretty quickly. I know, because both things have happened to me :)

As per this question about 4.x Licensing & Activation FAQ
states what is to be done in case such as yours.
My machine has died and I can't "Return" my license, what can I do? We can assist in migrating your licenses from one computer to another if a system is replaced, repaired or lost. This is a process performed by our support department and takes about a day. Contact support@unity3d.com.
So you need to contact Unity support at given email id.
Also I suggest you to read the whole question so as to get a clear idea and additional information.
