Q100585: How to activate your Individual Login license

  1. The Foundry SANDBOX
  2. License Help
  3. Login-based Licensing

SUMMARY

Foundry Login licensing gives you the flexibility to easily use your license on different machines when or if you need to.

Before you can activate the license on your machine, you will need to have a valid entitlement in your account on the Foundry website. You can view your current Login licenses and entitlements via the Login License page on the Foundry website.

Note: These steps are for Individual licenses only. If you are using a Team license, the steps to activate a Team license can be found here: Q100660: How to activate your Team Login license

Note: After two decades of 3D workflow innovation, we have made the difficult decision to discontinue Modo, following the release of 17.1. More information on this can be found here.
