We have network license for the Inventor Suite 2010 which includes Mechanical. But the user are getting prompted to activate their product when lanuching Mechanical and not Inventor. When I check the product information in mechanical it sees it as a standalone license. 2009 porducts and prior had a bit code in the registry that changes the product from standalone to network license and vice versa, but 2010, that code has changed. Does anyone know what the new code is?
here is the registry key that controls the license type in 2009 and prior:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R17.0\ACAD-5000:409\AdLM
Change Type=2a to Type=19. This will switch you to network licensing. You will then need to specify the license server the next time you launch the application.
Thanks
