Hi Jorge,
With a student license, you can have MATLAB installed and activated on two different computers. But, you can only be actively using MATLAB on one of these computers at a time. It is not possible to use MATLAB with the same student license on two computers at the same time.

Hello, Thanks for the answer. I have the same problem. I installed Matlab on 2 computers but they have different windows accounts. When trying to use Matlab on the second computer, I get an error message that "username does not match the username in the license file" although I tried the same username on the first one. It advices to "run the activation client to reactivate the licence". I tried to find a way to do this but could not. Would you please advice how?
Thank you
