Activate Products
When you run Autodesk Navisworks 2013 for the first time, you will be asked
to activate the product. This does not apply to Autodesk Navisworks Freedom.
If your computer is connected to the Internet, your computer can communicate
directly with Autodesk to complete the activation process.
If your computer is disconnected from the Internet, you can activate later
when you are connected. Some products also permit you to activate offline
by sending the serial number, request code, and registration data to Autodesk
over the Web or by email. For more information on activation, go to
Autodesk
Licensing
and select the FAQ link.
Move to Autodesk Navisworks from a Previous
Release
If you have a previous version of Autodesk Navisworks installed on your
system, you can install Autodesk Navisworks 2013 and keep other versions of
the program on the same system. This is called a side-by-side installation. This
feature is not applicable to Autodesk Navisworks Freedom.
If you’ve purchased an upgrade version of Autodesk Navisworks 2013, you are
required to uninstall the previous version within 120 days of installing
Autodesk Navisworks 2013. See your license agreement for more information.
