Serial Numbers

For an overview of the SolidWorks installation process, see the following:

Serial Numbers

Serial numbers, found on the distribution box, associate your computer with the products you have purchased. If you have an internet connection, as you proceed through the installation, the serial numbers you provide are used to automatically display the products to which you are entitled so that you can select the products to install.

Because there are multiple ways to purchase SolidWorks products, some serial numbers can cover two or more products. For example, a SolidWorks serial number might enable you to install COSMOSWorks without entering a separate COSMOSWorks serial number. In addition, some products, such as eDrawings, do not require a serial number.

If you have any questions about your serial numbers, contact your VAR.

Enter your SolidWorks serial number, if you have one.
Optionally, click If you have other serial numbers from SolidWorks Corporation, enter them here to provide serial number for products that are not included with your SolidWorks license. Check the products for which you have serial numbers and enter all serial numbers you have been given.

If SolidWorks products are already installed on your computer, their serial numbers are displayed by default.
