Introduction
The instructions are written using the example of installing and activating AutoCAD 2015.
With minor modifications, it can be used to install and activate other Autodesk products.

Before installation:
1. Check that the system requirements meet the capabilities of the computer.
System requirements are always indicated in the distribution or on the official website. If there
are any inconsistencies, this means that the installation and operation of the program is not guaranteed
by the developer. Please note that support for Windows XP has been discontinued.

2. Check the integrity of the distribution package with the program.

Checksums are indicated in each distribution - you can always check the integrity of the
distribution using them using a program for checking checksums, for example, MD5summer or
HashTab.

3. Update the operating system.

Distributions are “self-contained”, i.e. they include all the components necessary for work
(Visual C++ libraries, NET.Framework, etc.), so the implementation of this item is more of a
recommendation.

4. Install a virtual drive (or use the portable version)

It is NOT RECOMMENDED to unpack distributions in ISO/ ISZ format onto a hard drive - in this
case, the occupied folder size can be several times larger than the image size. In addition, if unpacking
does not take place at the root of the disk, then “loss” of files is possible due to too long paths. Not to
mention the time of such unpacking and subsequent removal.

Additionally, it is worth considering the following points:

1. It is advisable to install and activate all programs under the “Administrator” account.

This is especially important for 64-bit OSes. If installation and/ or activation did not take place
under your account, you must repeat it under the “Administrator” account. The Administrator account
has greater rights than a user account with administrator rights.

How to enable or disable the “Administrator” account in sufficient detail

described in Internet sources, for example, here - http:// www.wseven.info/ administrator/

2. During installation and activation, it is advisable to disable the antivirus and Internet.
Disabling the antivirus will save a lot of time and nerves, especially in the case of “paranoid”
settings. It is not necessary to disable the Internet, but there may be cases of errors during activation.

3. CAD programs should be installed on the original OS.

Installation/activation/operation of programs on “traditional craftsmen” assemblies is not
guaranteed and all outrage about this should be addressed to anyone other than CAD releasers.

If errors occur during installation or activation

(provided that the recommendations written above are
followed), as well as if the installed program is unstable:

0. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED to engage in “self-diagnosis” and “self-medication” without

sufficient skills;

1. It is NOT RECOMMENDED to use applications that clean the registry and hard drives
(and even more so - manual cleaning), as well as third-party uninstallers without understanding
the essence of the actions performed and assessment of possible consequences;

2. It is RECOMMENDED to use the standard Autodesk uninstaller.

3. IT IS RECOMMENDED that you read these instructions more carefully from the very beginning to
the very end;

4. It is RECOMMENDED that you describe the problem in detail, providing screenshots of the error,
installation log files and information about the OS, actions performed, and information about the
distribution used;

5. IT IS RECOMMENDED to check the installation/activation/operation of the program on another

computer - perhaps the problematic OS requires reinstallation for a long time.

Installation
0. Unpack the official distribution package or mount the ISO/ISZ image into a virtual drive (insert/connect
the distribution package recorded on the media into a compatible drive/connector of the computer)

1. Start installing the program via setup.exe. The setup is

initialized (installation files are copied to a temporary folder on the computer).

2. After the program completes the settings, a window will appear

Note: depending on the Autodesk product, a choice of installer language may be presented in the upper right
area of the window; the language of the installed program is selected
further.
Click "Install".

3. In the next window, accept the “License Agreement”

Click "Next".

4. In the next window, enter the necessary information:

Here we select the program language, license type, enter the serial number and product key.
Note: it is desirable that the program language matches the installer language selected in the
previous window.
Serial numbers can be, for example, like this: 666-69696969 or 667-98989898 or 400-45454545
or 111-11111111. The product key depends on the program you are installing (see Appendix A). Click
"Next".

5. In the next window, we configure the installation by expanding the spoilers

If there are available updates, the installer will offer to include them in the overall installation. This
should not be done - there may be problems with activation.
After setting, click "Install"

6. Install the program

Depending on the configuration, installation may take quite a long time, since in addition to the
program itself, the necessary components for its correct operation are installed.

Activation
The version of the keygen used depends on the OS bit depth.

Depending on the method of installing the program (as a 30-day trial or with entering the serial number
and product key) and the moment the activation begins (immediately when starting the program or in an already
running program - in the “About the program” window through the “Activate” button), connected or the Internet
is disconnected, the appearance of the licensing windows may differ slightly from those shown below. But the
general principle of activation is constant: starting activation -
Cancellation of activation – restart with the appearance of the data entry window.

It is not necessary to turn off the Internet to activate.

1. Launch the program.

The program is initialized (splash screen with loading indication), after which
The licensing window will appear:

We accept the agreement by checking the box and clicking the “I Accept” button.

2. The following window will appear

If you click "Try", the program will launch in trial mode. This mode has a limitation of 30 days before
activation, after which the button will become inactive; The functionality of the program has no restrictions.

3. Click “Activate” – a window appears

The window may look slightly different if your computer is not connected to the Internet.

In any case, click “Close”, confirm closing the licensing window - the program automatically
redirects you to the beginning of the activation process.

4. Repeat steps 1, 2

5. Now, when you click the “Activate” button , the “correct” window appears, where
You must select "I have an Autodesk activation code."

6. Launch keygen (remember about the bitness of the OS and Administrator rights!) and click on it
Patch (required!!!) – as a result, the message “Successfully patched!” should appear:

7. Now the most important thing:

A – in the keygen (the “Request” area) copy the Request code; B – click Generate. In the
keygen-a window (the “Activation” area) we get the necessary code
activation;
B - the received code is inserted into the Autodesk activation window:

IN

The code is 7 characters shorter

Click "Next" and you should get the following window:

Notes
1. After successful installation, I recommend clearing the temporary folder (Run - %TEMP%)
- log files and other garbage will no longer be needed. In case of errors, log files will help
you identify the error and understand how to fix it. 2. For the ESD
distribution, you also need to delete the contents of the C:\Autodesk folder).

Appendix B
Some problems and solutions
1. After entering the serial number and product key, the “Next” button is inactive
Enter the correct data (keys are listed in Appendix A)

2. Errors occur during installation

- blocking by antivirus – disable antivirus
- insufficient rights to write files or registry keys (typical for 64-bit
OS) – install the program as an administrator or from an account
Administrator;
- using the installation log file, try to fix the problems yourself or
leave it to “competent comrades.”

3. When you start the program, only the program splash screen appears (possibly the
program) and immediately exits without any error windows
Activation was incorrect, you need to delete the folder
C:\ProgramData\FLEXnet\ (Win7, Win8, Win8.1) and re-activate.

4. Keygen does not start or displays a message window.

- the bitness of the launched keygen does not match the bitness of the OS
- blocking by antivirus – disable antivirus;
- the activated program is not running – start the program and only after a window appears
asking you to enter the activation code, launch keygen;
- not enough rights to run;
- it is not possible to write a temporary file (necessary for startup) to the folder with the keygen;

5. It is impossible to activate the program even after meeting all the requirements
Instructions
- re-read the Instructions again - 99% of errors lie in inattention:
- the “patch” button is not pressed;
- blocking by antivirus;
- not enough rights to run;
- sometimes activation “freezes” - a situation is possible in which an error message appears,
and the next time the program is launched, it turns out to be activated;

- in rare cases, keygen issues an activation code that is 8 characters shorter (when inserted
into the program licensing window, the 15th cell is empty) - you need to generate a new
activation code and make sure that when inserted, there will be one letter “z” in the 15th
window;
- applying the update BEFORE activation - reinstalling the program (the problem with SP1 is
solved by manually replacing the files);
- trashed OS - only reinstall the OS.

Appendix C
"Allied product is not found" problem
The Autodesk installer/uninstaller is not perfect. There may be situations when the following critical error
appears when installing a program (using Plant 3D 2014 as an example, but the point is clear):

There may be several reasons why it occurs and it makes no sense to describe them.
The following problem solving mechanism has been experimentally developed:
1) Use the standard Autodesk uninstaller to remove ALL products;
2) Using the Uninstall Tool, we forcefully remove EVERYTHING that remains from Autodesk, checking that
there are no traces left in the “Programs”, “Hidden” and “System” sections;

3) By running the FixIt utility (found on the MS website), we finally eliminate all problems with
Autodesk.
