I was expect that one vmix will be closed by force but it doesnt

What are you trying to tell us?

Quote:

Can licenses be installed on more than one PC?

Each license can be installed on up to two PCs or Laptops in total as long as vMix is not being used on both at the same time.
To install your license on to the second machine, enter the key as normal and follow the instructions in the error message when prompted.

Licenses can also be transferred to a new computer if required as long as vMix is no longer being used on the previous machine.

Yes thats ok - we use our second computer to spread the project to make it easier but it could all be on one. You should by a second copy if you're going to stream from a different site with a whole new project

Your vMix license is for 1 instance only. You should not be running 2 installations with the same license number simultaneously... You could install it on 2 computers and then choose which instance to use on a case by case basis. When testing on my notebook and then running that setup to my production PC in the past I have been locked out of my account temporarily due to the amount of devices "tied" to my license number.

I had to contact Support and explain my situation before I was able to log back in under that license number again. so if you value your ability to open the application on a regular basis, I would not challenge the terms of the User Agreement.
