Hey autodesk community,
So i have a computer that has inventor 2017 on it, and i need inventor 2017 on my other computer too. But the Wi-Fi at my house is too slow to download it. I was wondering if there was a way to install it on my other computer using files from my first computer, by copying them onto a thumb drive, and then installing it on my new computer. Thanks -Tucker

I have the 3 files saved to my OneDrive ... and I open my OneDrive on the pc I need and download it.
It's to big for most USB's, so you'll need an external hard drive.

External hard drive ...or a local internet cafe' / Starbucks etc

I am confused.
If you followed the instructions you were given in this thread

you should already have these three compressed install files downloaded - no need to download again.
Are you a student?
If so, can you ask your instructor for loan of USB with the 3 compressed install files?
2 different pc's ...and basically no WI-FI / internet at his house ..
how does he get the 3 files from his 1 pc to the other pc

USB thumb drive is the way we do it around here.
Works like a charm. (Even looks like a charm.)
Install in 30-day trial mode until access to internet can be obtained to Activate the license. (don't need a fast connection for activation)

I know that I'm a little late to the party (as usual)..
You indicated, slow WIFI at your house... Why can't you just plug directly (hard-wire) into your router? I would never recommend downloading over WIFI.. Hard wire your machine and download it that way...
