How do I find my Serial Number

I am using the free personal version of Fusion 360 and it is saying that my license has expired and I will need my serial number to renew.  I cannot find my serial number so cannot renew.

 

I do realise that I am getting the use of a very powerful piece of software for nothing, but the implication of the information is that I can renew.  It is very frustrating to spend 30 mins or so trying to find the serial number with various contradictory bits of information presented, none of which give me a serial number.

 

I guess that Autodesk may be trying to make it difficult to encourage me to pay for a license, and I do not blame them for that.  They have invested a lot of money in the product. 

 

Is there a way of extending the Free license, or do I start to learn anothe free one?  The full license is not a justifiable cost to me as a hobbyist woodworker who only want to design in 2D

I am not aware of any serial number required to renew a Fusion 360 Personal License.  You will need your Autodesk ID, the one you used previously with your expired Fusion 360 Personal License, but that is all.  Use of the same Autodesk Id ensures any work you save to the Cloud will be available to you once back online.  Go to this website and follow the process to renew your Fusion 360 Personal License.  The website covers two types of license, so read carefully.

I'm having the same issue: In the form for the renoval of the licence I need a serial number which I cannot find. 

This form also has an information "how to find your serial number", but unfortunately this information seems to be outdated.

Any idea where to find the serial number?

You need to go to the website mentioned in my previous post.  The one you are looking at is used for securing home use editions of Autodesk serial number products such as AutoCAD or Inventor.
