General Installation Questions
This section provides answers to some frequently asked questions about
installation.
What if I have lost my serial number or product
key?
Check your product packaging or purchase records, if available, or contact
Autodesk Customer Service for assistance.
Why do I need to activate a product after install-
ation?
Activation verifies for Autodesk and for you as a license holder that your
Autodesk product is installed on an eligible computer. The activation process
improves license security and management. For example, it ensures that a
multi-seat license is not in use by more than the authorized number of users.
