Quick Start to Stand-Alone Installation
This section provides step-by-step instructions about how to prepare, and then
install Autodesk Navisworks.
Stand-alone installation is recommended for individual users or small groups.
The key point is that you will repeat the installation process on each computer.
For a stand-alone license this is the only valid installation type, but it can also
be used with a multi-seat stand-alone or network license.
If you have never installed the product before, you should familiarize yourself
with the entire installation process and options before beginning.
For information about installing network-licensed or multi-seat stand-alone
versions of the program, see
Install Autodesk Navisworks for Multiple Users
(page 44).
Prepare for Installation
To prepare for installation, you should review the system requirements,
understand administrative permission requirements, locate your Autodesk
Navisworks Simulate 2012 serial number and product key, and close all running
applications.
Complete these tasks, and you are ready to begin installing Autodesk Navisworks
Simulate 2012.
NOTE It is also recommended that you install Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0 before
installing the product. See
Install Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0 (page 31).
