■ Ensure that your user name has Administrator permissions to install
applications on the computer or network.
■ Obtain serial numbers and product keys for all products you want to install.
These are on the product package or provided at the time you download
the software.
■ Close all running applications.
Select Install Type
Here is some basic information to help you choose the right path.
■ Install is recommended for individual users or small groups. The key
point is that you will repeat the installation process on each computer.
This is the only valid installation type for a stand-alone license, but it can
also be used with a multi-seat stand-alone or network license.
■ Create Deployment is recommended for network administrators, using
either a multi-seat stand-alone or network license. In the deployment
process, the installation is configured once, stored on the network, and
then distributed efficiently to users' computers.
For more information on deployments, see
Create Deployment (page 5)
or the Network Administrator's Guide.
■ Install Tools & Utilities is used to install tools and utilities related to
your suite or product. If you have a network license for your Autodesk
product, you will need to use this option to install the Network License
Manager before any users can run the product. Consult the documentation
for your suite or product to identify the available tools and utilities of
interest.
