4.2 Import license file is not possible

With the option “Important license file” the Protection setup will search for your file on the internet via TCP port 80 and copy this into a folder on the computer.

Automatic import of the LIC file from the SCIA protection server is possible when the dongle is attached to the computer and when internet connection is available.

Importing the LIC file can be done only if the user has writing rights on the installation folder for the license file.

It is possible to change the path to the folder where the license file will be imported by right-mouse button clicking on the header of Protection setup dialogue:

Choose here for [Advanced settings...]

And here the path to the folder containing the license file can be adapted.

When using an edition and dynamic packet of SCIA Engineer you will find next to the SCIAxx.lic-file also a SCIAxx.e2c-file. In this case you have to make sure that both files are stored in the same folder when importing the license file.

With the option “Import license file”, the Protection Setup will make a copy of your license file and copy it into the folder described above. By default this folder is: C:\ProgramData\SCIA\Engineer\License\

If the protection setup gives an error message when clicking on “Import license file”, you can copy the license file into this folder manually. After clicking on “Apply/Refresh” the licenses will be found and you can work with SCIA Engineer 18.

If you don’t have your latest license file, you can send us an email on [email protected] to ask for your license files and we will send the files to you.
