EA has released the long-awaited de-authorisation tool for Spore, making it possible to fully remove the game from a machine and then install and play on another machine.

“By running the de-authorization tool, a machine “slot” will be freed up on the online Product Authorization server and can then be re-used by another machine,” EA explained. “You can de-authorize at any time, even without uninstalling Spore, and free up that machine authorization. If you re-launch Spore on the same machine, the game will attempt to re-authorize.”

You’ll find a step-by-step guide along with the tool itself over on Spore.com.
