With the release of P3D v4.1, it looks like ill be doing a full reinstall at some point to take advantage of all the features. My question is, when I uninstall my PMDG stuff and the sim, and then reinstall it all, do i have to unregister the product first? Or can i skip that and just reinstall and will it be activated?

Leave the activation out of it. As is noted in the Intro Manual, the only times to return a license are as follows:

1. Reinstalling your entire OS,
2. Changing hardware (HDD, mobo, etc), or
3. Changing computers

Last month I lost my whole system due to a catastrophic W10 problem that led the computer shop to wipe the HD and reinstall windows. I lost every file (have Acronis now and that will never occur). I did save my license files to the cloud a while ago so still have them saved to Google Drive. What is the procedure to reinstall?

Just install as if you'd never had it on your system.
