Adding a Worker to Fusion Personal Installation

[edwin_harris7PC9E]

I am trying to install a personal copy of Fusion 360 CAD for my son who is CAD trained but dyslexic.

From the tutorial I thought that I could set myself up as Admin and then invite him as the Worker and assign the "licence" to him.  Unfortunately, when I invited him the system said that he would be read-only as the single licence is assigned to me as the owner of the installation.

Is there any way, at this point, that I can transfer the licence to him whilst I remain admin or can I transfer ownership of the installation to him and withdraw completely?

Or do I need to wipe this installation and re-install in his name from the start?

@edwin_harris7PC9E Unfortunately you cannot do what you are trying to do here for personal license. This is available for our education license where it is usually a teacher/student kind of work. 

Options for you (you do not have to uninstall anything since the install is the same for any kind of license )

1. Apply for a personal license for your son. This would now allow him to have his own Fusion account, his own hub
2. Share the same account for you and your son (same login ) but have different projects inside on who works on what (this is not a sustainable workflow in the long run if you want him to have his own account in the future)

Many thanks for your swift reply.

I have no wish to use the software at all, I'm just the IT guy installing and maintaining it. How do I apply for a personal licence for him, I thought it came as part of the download?

Alternatively, can I change the user name / user e-mail address for the installation to his?

@edwin_harris7PC9E When you start a new account with Fusion it gives you 30 day trial license that lets you explore everything the software has to offer without any need to apply for commercial. When you get closer to the trial countdown you will be given options to select on what you want to move to. At that point you can choose personal and it will take about 2-3 days for Autodesk to verify and approve (usually a lot sooner than that). Once the trial ends then the account transfers to a personal account. 

Yes you can go into manage.autodesk.com and change email, user ID, password etc.
