How do I transfer a SolidWorks student license to a new computer?


FAQ Direct Link

We have a limited number of SolidWorks student licenses therefore it is important to uninstall the software or deactivate the license before transferring from an old PC to a new one to ensure that one of the licenses is not used up needlessly. Instructions for deactivating a license are here:

If you are unable to uninstall or deactivate a license, perhaps because an old machine has stopped working, it would be helpful if you could notify dmem-itsupport@strath.ac.uk
