Introduction - Autodesk STAND-ALONE LICENSING Manual

Introduction

A stand-alone license allows you to run an Autodesk product on a single
workstation. To obtain a license, you activate your product.
You can use your Autodesk product for thirty days before you are required to
activate it. You can also activate your license at any time before the expiration
date. After the expiration date, you cannot run your Autodesk product until
you register and activate the product.
When you register your product, you receive an activation code. You enter
the activation code in the Product Activation wizard, which is displayed every
time you launch an unactivated product.
NOTE If you are installing and using an Autodesk product on both operating
systems of a dual-boot operating system, you must obtain a separate activation
code for each operating system.
For more information about registering and activating your product, see your
product's Stand-Alone Installation Guide, which is available on your product
Media Browser or in the product's Help system.
The license file stays on your workstation when you uninstall your product.
If you reinstall your Autodesk product on the same workstation, the license
information is still valid. You do not have to reactivate the product.
