How do I register and activate Autodesk Navisworks?
The first time you start Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2011, the Product Activation wizard is displayed. You can
either activate Autodesk Navisworks at that time or run Autodesk Navisworks and activate it later.
Until you register and enter a valid activation code for Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2011, you are operating
the program in trial mode and the Product Activation wizard is displayed for 30 days from the first time that
you run the program. If after 30 days of running Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2011 in trial mode you have not
registered and provided a valid activation code, your only option is to register and activate Autodesk Navisworks
Manage 2011. You will not be able to run in trial mode after the 30 days expires. Once you register and activate
Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2011, the Product Activation wizard is no longer displayed.
TIP The fastest and most reliable way to register and activate your product is by using the Internet. Simply enter your
registration information and send it to Autodesk over the Internet. Once you submit your information, registration and
activation occur almost instantly.
