2016 Sim Mechanical Install Missing files

[Anonymous]

The "Autodesk_Simuation_Mechanical_2016_Multilingual_Win_64bit_dlm_001_002.sfx.exe" was available on our subscription page.

I downloaded the 2.0 gb install file.  When I run it, it says "Product download consists of multiple files. At least one file is missing or has not been downloaded yet".

Only other files were the Valult file and the 12 mb install file that I assumed was used to download and install.  We had wanted the 2.0 gb file for several installs.

What file is needed in order to extract the files??

If you use IE, Chrome or Firefox, make sure that pop-up blockers are off.

This link will be valid for 7 days if you can't figure out the pop up settings;

If the link above is not valid for the second file, get tech support to give you a valid link. Both files needed. With SP1 out, links are probably different.

Please provide me with the link of extra files for"Autodesk_Simuation_Mechanical_2016_Multilingual_Win_64bit_dlm_001_002.sfx.exe"

Hi, I'm also having the same issue. The popup blockers are stopping the other parts downloading.

I've tried doing a chat with tech support and it just says connecting. Is anyone able to post a current link to the missing files? Thanks for your help,

Ben

Hi Ben,

Sorry to hear about the problems with downloading the installation files. This method may work for you:

1. https://manage.autodesk.com and log into your account
2. On the "All Products & Services" page (this may be the default page), scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Download Products".
3. Select the year and change the option to "Browser Download" for the Autodesk Simulation Mechanical English, German.....

Does it download the two files?

If not, please confirm that you are trying to download version 2016.

Hi John, Thanks for your reply. I've tried your steps. Still have the same error occurring. It is the 2016 version that I'm trying. There is only one file that downloads. Autodesk_Simulation_Mechanical_2016_Multilingual_Win_64bit_dlm_001_002.sfx.exe

Hi @Anonymous

There are two versions of Sim Mech 2016:

The "Multi-lingual" version, which is what I think you have based on the link you show. The two download files are as follows:

1. http://efulfillment.autodesk.com/NET16SWDLD/2016/ASMES/DLM/Autodesk_Simulation_Mechanical_2016_Multilingual_Win_64bit_dlm_001_002.sfx.exe?authparam=1488310480_d327f14cbda1d4c31bbfc423d4f2898f&ext=.exe
2. http://efulfillment.autodesk.com/NET16SWDLD/2016/ASMES/DLM/Autodesk_Simulation_Mechanical_2016_Multilingual_Win_64bit_dlm_002_002.sfx.exe?authparam=1488310688_499d8ec7e640aa09f350bbebc6d59a0b&ext=.exe

and the "Flex" version (solves on the cloud). The two download files are as follows:

1. http://efulfillment.autodesk.com/NET16SWDLD/2016/SMFLX/DLM/Autodesk_Simulation_Mechanical_Flex_2016_Multilingual_Win_64bit_dlm_001_002.sfx.exe?authparam=1490297983_1b26a28baed72fb0c9ea4124a5b9d0b5&ext=.exe
2. http://efulfillment.autodesk.com/NET16SWDLD/2016/SMFLX/DLM/Autodesk_Simulation_Mechanical_Flex_2016_Multilingual_Win_64bit_dlm_002_002.sfx.exe?authparam=1490298040_aa6785965a90c3577b8e573be7584396&ext=.exe

I hope these work

Thanks John, after using these files, and my internet at home, not my schools. I got It to work. The only problem I'm having now is licencing.

When I go to activate it has an error.

Thanks for initiating your product activation. The system encountered a problem registering or activating your product. Please submit your registration information to us in a Customer Service request and an Autodesk representative will contact you.

Any help is appreciated, Thanks John

The people on the Installation & Licensing forum should be able to help with activating the product.
