Autodesk Inventory Analyzer

[paulwse]

I am trying to find the executable/program for the Autodesk Inventory Analyzer, which is required to complete an Autodesk Software Review, managed by Autodesk Software Management team. They provide no obvious link to the tool they want me to use.  You would think they would make this easy, but no.  We have a two-seat, non-network, locally installed license/subscription that we have had for probably ten years; two-seat license active on two computers, one workstation and one laptop, plus another laptop that is rarely used but allowed under the license agreement (for the user with the workstation, home use requested and approved years ago).

When I first got the email from noreply_software-review@autodesk.com, it sends me to this link:

https://software-review.autodesk.com/

At that page it asks if you are a new user.  Well, It's logical to think "no, I'm not a new user" since I already have an Autodesk logon, and since the primary Autodesk login even states "Your account for everything Autodesk."  That is incorrect and needs to be changed on the primary Autodesk login page, since it is misleading and inconsistent with the Software Review page.

So after talking with some supposedly from Autodesk Software Management team, turns I have to create new username and password for this exercise, which I compare to an audit by the IRS of a lemonade stand.

So I create another login and then after answering a bunch of questions I'm supposed to run a tool called Autodesk Inventory Analyzer, but there is no link to download it, or if there is, it is hidden in "mystery meat" navigation.

If someone knows where the link is, please post.  I'm obviously not going to get it from Autodesk.

Thanks!  Now that I know where to find the "hoop," I can jump thru it.
