SolidNetWork Licensing and SOLIDWORKS Product Activation

If you run SOLIDWORKS Product Activation from the SolidNetWork License Manager, you must specify the product activation action to perform.

What Do You Want to Do?

Move your product license(s) to a new/upgraded computer

Move the license for this computer to the license key server at Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corporation.

Typically, you deactivate the license before removing the SOLIDWORKS software from a computer. You can reactivate the license on another computer.

If your organization has perpetual commercial or educational licenses and your SolidNetWork License Manager is from SOLIDWORKS 2022, you must reactivate those licenses once a year. Click Reactivate Licences and follow the instructions in the SOLIDWORKS Product Activation Wizard.
