    Hi
    Just came to used my SOLIDWORKS and got message trial expired, I followed instructions to uninstall and reload but on entering school license ID it says invalid code.
    If I leave in XSEK12 I get a download link. What is best way to proceed?

    First, please don't post keys on the web. Those are unique to our program. Second, we are on 2019-20, so you will need to renew your license and download the new software. Here is the page from which you can access the form:

    The first error can be caused by not replacing the old serial number that populates with the new one we emailed you. Sometimes people also neglect to delete the CAM serial. The fix is:
    1) Add Remove
    2) Select Modify Installation
    3) Change the serial to the one we emailed you.

    For the Activation Wizard...72 errorL
    1) Get the "run" menu (Win+R) and run "services.msc"
    2) Scroll down until you find "FlexNet...." (There should be two, depending on if your system is x64 or not),
    3) Double click both of them and change the dropdown to "Automatic"
    4) Scroll down until you find "Solidworks Licensing...."
    5) Same as Step 3, change the drop down to "Automatic"

    Call if you have issues 9

    OK, I followed the instructions, viewed the requirements and was happy to see that there was an option for MAC (eDrawings). When following all the download instructions, that only gets your the Windows EXE.

    May I get some guidance about how to download the MAC version?

    Thank you

    If I have an older paid seat of SW for W7, can I also get the Student W10 version if I don't load the older W7 seat?

    I recall seeing a post from a paid seat user who couldn't get the Student version, but I thought this deserves its own answered question.

    Thanks.
