Installation Workflow

When you install Autodesk products, you prepare your system, choose installation options, and activate and register the software. Your tasks differ depending on your license type, product, and installation environment. Check your product documentation for product-specific installation help.

These installation basics describe the installation path for individual, self-managed users who are installing on a single computer. (You can install the same product on a second computer, but the two cannot run at the same time. If you're in a multi-user environment, see your license agreement.) You can also use these instructions to install trial software.

Note: If you are in a group with a multi-seat license, you can repeat these basic instructions for each installation in your group. Alternatively, you can create a network deployment. For information on creating a network deployment, follow the link to "About Network Administration" at the bottom of this page.
