I bought a copy of the lastest version of OOTP from their website and thanks to a typo I did I installed it in a different directory then my intended C:\Games directory (I added a "t" by mistake). So when I went to uninstall the game via the Control Panel, the uninstall program prompted me that I should deactivate the license if I intended to reinstall at a later time. I should mention that I bought the game from the website directly & did not purchase a Steam license, So I went online to get both the ley and the computer ID in order to unregister it.

However, when I did this, I got a message from the webpage where I deactivate the license stating "The license *alphanumeric license listed here* was not activated on your computer."

I know I registered it on my PC (otherwise how in the world am I able to play the game still?) and I copied and pasted both the license and computer ID correctly. So is that its way of stating "alright your license copy of the game is unregistered, you may now install it on other PC or reinstall it on the same one" or is something else going on here?

I don't want to uninstall my game just yet for fear of not being able to install or play it again due to a "all licenses are still in use" error.

I notice from the email I got (as I had forgotten what the license number was & got an email to remind me) the columns "Expiry Date" and "MP Release Date" are blank. Does that have anything to do with the "license not activated on your computer" message or something totally different?

Any help would be appreciated.
