How does a trial license work in a product suite
or bundle?
A single trial period, usually 30 days, applies to all Autodesk products in the
suite or bundle. When the first product is started, the trial period begins for
all products. If the user does not activate one of the products before the trial
period ends, access to all of the products is denied. After the trial period ends,
the user can restore access to the products by entering an activation code.
How do I switch my license from stand-alone to
network or network to stand-alone?
If you simply entered the wrong license type by mistake, and are still running
the installer, use the Back button to return to the Product Information dialog,
and change the license type.
If you want to change the license type for an installed product, contact your
Autodesk reseller or license supplier to obtain the new license and serial
number. Then uninstall your product and run a new install to change the
license type and enter the new serial number.
Where can I find product license information
after installation?
Select Help menu ➤ About, or About [Product Name]. If your product uses
InfoCenter, that is where you can find the Help menu.
After installation, how can I change product
configuration, repair, or uninstall the product?
1 Go to the Windows control panel:
■ Windows XP: On the Start menu, click Settings ➤ Control
Panel ➤ Add or Remove Programs.
■ Windows 7: On the Start menu, click Settings ➤ Control
