I tried to install the trial the other day after first it being the wrong suite, then not all the parts being up, and now after installing it keeps asking for an activation code. I tried to reinstall it, and I've completely uninstalled and reinstalled it, but none of that works. If anyone has any ideas or even a solution to this problem that would be great. I'm kind of on a time crunch for this. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.
If it doesn't give you the option to run as trial on launch, then there is no way to make it do so. You'll have to install it on another machine.
Thanks, but unfortunately I don't have another machine to install it on at the moment. I wonder if I can delete the license info out of the registry and try to reinstall it again. It's acting like the trial expired, but I installed it a few days ago, and it hasn't even been out for more than 30 days. It would be good if autodesk made the factory design suite available for students, because I am a student, and all I need this trial for is to evaluate it and decide if the company I work for should purchase it or not.
No, it is not possible to reset a trial. If it thinks it is expired, then you are done.
