Can't find activation tab for Studen Edition Bundle

Tim313

Hello, I want to use HyperMesh and followed the official guide that i found here: https://web.altair.com/altair-student-edition?utm_source=&utm_medium=&utm_campaign=&utm_content=&utm_term=&_gl=190vl4a_gcl_au*NzE2OTc1OTcwLjE3NDQyMDExNTg.

Steps 1-3 worked fine and I succesfully received my Student Edition License. Step 4 is where things go wrong. I navigated to the file as explained in the guide. However, the window that shows up when running "almutil_gui.exe" does not have a tab "Activation" as shown in the guide. I installed the 2022 version as this is the one my university wants us to use. Might this be the issue? Did the way of activating your student license change since then?

Thank you in advance.

This is what the window looks like.

This is what it is supposed to look like.

Hello please use the latest version of HyperWorks and ALMUTIL to be able to see the activation tab and use the free student edition license key,

Thank you for your answer! It does work with a newer version. My university wants me to use version 2022 or older, though. Is there any way to use that with the free student edition license key?
