The license allows for 5 activations, such as installation on up to 5 computers you own.   You'll need to talk to Customer Support for help with the license issue, and tell them one of the activated computers crashed.

 

Hours are currently 5AM-5PM Pacific (8AM-8PM Eastern) Monday-Friday.

Can't you just use one of your other 4 computers?  Do you still have them?  May I ask why you need it installed on 5 computers?  You can do more than 1 return on one computer.  You can do unlimited returns on one program installation.  

 

Do you need to prepare a 2019 return or amend one?  You don't need to install the program to transfer 2019 into 2020.
