Hello joeycheng and welcome to the Autodesk community!

It looks like you are stuck at the activation/installation step while attempting to download software, or are having problems with starting your software immediately after installing. The following article(s) should help you resolve the problem:

In order to manually activate your software (in cases where the activation appears stuck), please refer to Manually Activating Your Autodesk Software.

If the activation window is not displayed, others have resolved this by completely uninstalling and reinstalling their software. Please refer to How to Remove all Software from a Windows System for assistance.

Welcome to the community..

I assume you used the install now option, is that correct?  If so stop..  Use the Autodesk Virtual Agent instead and follow the download links.  DOwnload all the parts for you software first.  Then go to the download folder and extract (double click) on part 1.  The extraction will start and prompt you to extract to C:\Autodesk.  Once the extraction has finished the installation will take place.
