Hello... Your key can be used agian during a install and activation... Sometimes a phone call might be required for Activation, explain your HD, MALWARE, or other equiptment failure required a re-install... it is a painless fast procedure.

You can install a same key on 3 different machines. You will nopt be able to reinstall it 10 000 times to think about this, <REDACTED>...

No, you cannot install on 3 different machines at the same time, unless you actually buy a 3 license pack.
Which MS does not sell any more.

1 license, 1 PC at a time.
