Stand-Alone Installation
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. For information about installing
network-licensed or multi-seat stand-alone versions of the program, see Network
Administration and Deployment (page 19).
Prepare for Stand-Alone Installation
To prepare for a stand-alone installation, you should review the system
requirements, understand administrative permission requirements, locate your
Autodesk Navisworks 2013 serial number and product key, and close all running
applications. If you are installing Autodesk Navisworks Freedom, you do not
need to have a serial number and product key.
It is recommended that you take the time to familiarize yourself with the
complete installation process before you install Autodesk Navisworks.
Documentation is accessible from links on the lower left corner of the installer.
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 5).
