Changing Your Associated Device in U-Rite​

Users sometimes upgrade their computer or switch workstations but aren’t sure how to update the device associated with their U-Rite account. Because U-Rite licenses are tied to a single active device at a time, you may occasionally need to change which machine is registered.

U-Rite allows you to update your associated device once every seven days directly from your Dashboard.

How to Change Your Associated Device​

Step 1: Log In to the U-Rite Dashboard​

  1. Sign in using your U-Rite account credentials.
  2. Open the U-Rite Dashboard.

Step 2: Open Account or Profile Settings​

  1. Navigate to your Account or Profile section.
  2. Review your subscription details and current settings.

Step 3: Locate Device Information​

  1. Find the Device Information section.
  2. Review the machine currently linked to your account.

Step 4: Remove the Existing Device​

  1. Click Remove Device.
  2. When prompted, confirm that you want to deactivate the current device.

After confirmation, your existing device is immediately deactivated, freeing your license for use on a new machine.

Activating a New Device​

Step 5: Sign In on the New Machine​

  1. Install or open the U-Rite Excel Add-In on your new computer.
  2. Launch Excel and open the U-Rite add-in.
  3. Sign in using your existing U-Rite credentials.
  4. The add-in will activate automatically on the new device.

Important
Be sure to manually bring your Excel model files with you, as files are not transferred automatically between devices.

7-Day Device Change Policy​

Please be aware of the following rules:

  • Device changes are allowed once every seven days.
  • Attempting to switch devices before the cooldown resets will result in a system notification blocking the change.
  • This policy helps protect organizational licensing and account security.
