Licence a Machine without user dependancy

Breitenfellner

Hello,

How can I license a device for Altair Inspire?
So far, my approach has been to enter the created authentication token into the licensing tool. Afterwards, I can use the product, but if I log in with another Windows user, I suddenly have no access to the software. I get the message saying I don't own a license.

Under authorized machines, while the hostname of the activated machine does appear online, the logged-in username with which I used the authorization token appears under the username. To the best of my understanding, *(ANY) should be listed here instead, allowing multiple users to access the software.

I would appreciate any help!

Best regards,
Markus

Hello Matthieu,

thank you very much for your response!

I believe I've managed to find the right information I needed. However, another problem has arisen. When I activate the machine via the command line ".\almutil -a1auth -code XXXXX -system", I get the message "Successfully authorized this machine with the Managed Licensing system".

It now shows up as "*(ANY)" on the licensing platform, which is exactly what I wanted.

But, when I start the software, I encounter the following message:

"Machine activation token was rejected - Invalid license"

Why is this happening? Shouldn't it work right away now?

Thanks in advance & kind regards,

Markus

Did you by chance delete your user token from Altair One?

Did you by chance delete your user token from Altair One?

The solution was as follows:

I had to delete the old authorization tokens from the path "C:\Users\username\AppData\Local.altair_licensing\user folder". "Old" tokens are stored on this device, which leads to an error where, upon launching the software, these old tokens are utilized.
