2020 Network License Update

This guide is written for 2020. If you are using an earlier version of SOLIDWORKS, please download our earlier installation documents to correctly load and administer your version of SOLIDWORKS.

Who this is for: If you have purchased additional user licenses for your SOLIDWORKS network installation, or if you have upgraded any existing network seats, you will need to update your SolidNetWork License Manager to allow it to serve the new license counts.

If you have not yet installed your license manager, or if your existing license manager is an older year version, please see our 2020 Network Server installation document for the steps needed to install this version of the license server.

Notice: This document is for internet or email activation-based licensing.

This is not a troubleshooting guide. If you have any technical issues with SOLIDWORKS, please contact Hawk Ridge Systems Technical Support or search our knowledgebase for “SNL Troubleshooting”.
