Q: What happens after my computers license expires?
When I recently used the 'Reinstall OS X from Recovery' mode to reinstall my OS X 10.8.5 mountain lion it says something about my iMac being checked for being valid to proceed. My AppleCare Protection Plan Certificate expires in March so does this mean that, if I were to need the Recovery facility will I no longer be able to use it after March?
I know OS X can be bought from the Apple Store but why should I pay for it when I've already done so as part of my iMac purchase?
Can anyone help please?
iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

No, it doesn’t. The certificate only applies when you need to contact Apple Support for issues related to the Mac, or take the Mac in for repair.
