License installation

Can I run software on multiple computers with the same standalone license?

Answer: This option is available only for licenses locked to a Computer ID (USB key). If your license is locked to a USB key, the same license may be used on multiple computers by copying the license file and then moving the USB key to activate the software on another computer.

  • For SAP2000 V15.0.0+ and CSiBridge V15.1.0+, replace the lservrc Trial license file with a dummy lservrc file which contains anything. Otherwise the Trial license file will be automatically recreated when deleted to prevent a Trial license file from overwriting a Network license file during upgrade.
