Installing & Configuring Software on a Single Computer with a Stand-Alone License

By CAD CENTRAL

Versions and operating systems: Instructions apply to both Mac and Windows operating systems for most Autodesk software versions 2011 and newer. For product specific installation instructions or instructions for installing older versions, please refer to your product documentation.

Software Activation: Entering a serial number during installation does not activate your software. When you launch your software for the first time, you will need to activate your software online or manually activate your Autodesk software by requesting an activation code. Offline activation requests submitted through the Web form can take up to 48 hours to complete—you can use your software as a free trial or activate your software online to get up and running faster.
