Locating Your Serial Number and Product Key
When you install AutoCAD Plant 3D, you are prompted for your serial number
and product key in the Product and User Information page. The serial number
and product key are located on the outside of the product packaging, or in
the email you received if you downloaded your product. Make sure to have
these available before you install the program so that you don't have to stop
in the middle of the installation.
The serial number must contain a three-digit prefix followed by an eight-digit
number. The product key consists of five digits.
The information you enter is permanently retained with the product. Because
you can't change this information later without uninstalling, take care when
entering the information. To review this product information later, on the
InfoCenter toolbar, click the drop-down arrow next to the Help button (the
question mark). Then click About.
NOTE If you have lost your serial number or product key, contact the Autodesk
Business Center (ABC) at 800-538-6401 for assistance.
Avoiding Data Loss During Installation
The AutoCAD Plant 3D installation process may stop if some applications
(such as Microsoft
®
Outlook
®
or virus-checking programs) are running. Close
all running applications to avoid possible installation problems and data loss.
