Will my license fail without internet??

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have a meeting tomorrow where I will be required to present concepts at a customer location.  The  location is particularily remote & I can't be sure of an internet connection.

Today I have tried turning the wifi off so I am disconnected from the internet & to be honest it doesn't inspire confidence when I'm presented with a timer showing 15min next to the sign on field!!  When I click on the timer I get "connect to the internet for more options"

Will Inventor let me down tomorrow??

Thanks,

BeeDub

Assuming you have a subscription based license.  Here's what happens...

If internet is seen in background it will try to connect.  If none the software goes into 30 day off line counter mode and continues to run 30 days without activation need.

In your case it still thinks it has internet connection. 

For the future use the installation and licensing forum for questions like this.
