Can you explain what you want to do?
The game should run fine, no matter which user does log in to your computer. In case you miss the entry in the start menu or the link on the desktop, you can start the game by double clicking PCM.exe.
But even if you have to re-install, you don't have to activate the game again:
Reinstall the game without losing activation
If you want to reinstall the game without losing an activation, you only have to click on "cancel" when you are asked to de-activate your key. That way your key will remains in your registry. After the installation, do not re-activate the game.
If the game would ask you to create a profile, just use the same information as with your previous profile. This should automatically make it possible to continue all careers and use your settings.
In case you don't want this, then create a new profile. (But neither do I know if it works or how you have to do it). |

No it doesnt work with my other user.
It says the product needs activation, isnt that weird? Because on my other user it was activated and I didn't uninstall it.
I just had to remove the user where i had activated it because of a virus thing that didn't occur on my other profile.
To say it clear: I wan't to play the game on my other user, but it keeps asking an activation key, My activation key isn't with me right now.
But you said i didn4t have to activate it once more so how comes that i cant play the game without activation?

Somewhere on the box where it asks you for the key there is a button that says "I already have my activation key" or something like that |

I know where it should be but it's a loooong way from me right now.
What should i do, because i don't believe Cyanide has designed a thing that makes you activate youre game just for changing he user.

If youve had it going before without a problem the "I already have my activation key" button should work. just dont delete whatever is in the box when you first click it

The game registers the serial key in the registry. If the key got deleted because you (or the virus) did strange things to your computer, you either have to activate again or re-set the registry key. (I prefer the second solution and therefore I made a backup of the registry key).
If you neither have a backup of your e-mail or the registry, then contact the seller of the game and ask for a new key. |

You could try going to your old settings and seeing if you could somehow get the activation key |
