What are license IDs & license.usrid files?
- License ID is a unique identifier characters used to activate our apps. It can be either your Autodesk account Id, or your machines' hardware Id. MAC address of a machine is included in the hardware Id.
- License.usrid files are generated automatically on your computer desktop when you run our license generator app. Or after installation of our Revit app, from inside Revit, click Support pulldown button then click User Id. We need these files initially to issue your license when you purchase a product.
What are the available license types and what do they support?
- Autodesk Id License Files:
License file(s) is generated, stored and managed using your Autodesk account Id. It can be saved on a network and/or local directory for all registered users. A user can be logged into multiple machines, with one active session at a time .usrid file(s) can be generated only from within Revit. If a user logs into Revit using a registered Autodesk Id on any machine, our apps are activated. If a user wishes to change their email, they can do so by logging into their Autodesk account and change emails. This doesn't change your account Id nor our license file as long as the Autodesk account is still active. Our application can only read this account Id, and we don't have any kind of authority over this account (i.e change, deactivate, etc..) after the license is issued. - Hardware Id License Files:
License file(s) is generated, stored and managed using your hardware Id(including MAC address). It can be saved on a network and/or local directory for all registered computers. .usrid file(s) can be generated from within Revit and/or our desktop license generator app. Users can migrate license(s) from one computer to another by deactivating license on one machine and activating another machine. - If you wish to switch your license from one machine to another, please Attach and email .usrid file(s) of both computers to support@archithetics.net (for hardware id license type).
