Step 4 – Activate your Software with your Student Edition License key

 NOTE: Before initiating the license activation process, ensure at least one software product that is part of the student edition bundle is installed on your system. If not installed, please visit Altair One Marketplace, download the software, and complete the installation of the software before proceeding with the steps here, as explained in Step 3.

 

  1. Navigate to System (C:) > Program Files > Altair > 2023 > security > bin > win64 > Gui. Locate and double-click on almutil_gui.exe, as illustrated in the image below.
