This year around, I was able to renew Inventor / InventorCAM, but not FeatureCAM.

Surely all the products I have ( Inventor, InventorCAM, and FeatureCAM ) can be grouped together so they all expire on the same anniversary, and I can renew my account on that anniversary, rather than renewing each individual product on each products' anniversary?Īnyway, if anyone can point me in the right direction to get everything renewed again before they expire, I would be grateful. I really love Inventor and InventorCAM, ( FeatureCAM is terrible but I'm forced to use it ) but the licence renewal thing is very painful indeed. It has not asked me which educational institution I work at when it tells me InventorCAM and FeatureCAM are expriring shortly, it only gives the 'activate' button.Ĭlearly I am missing a trick somewhere, because my Autodesk Educational page says I have access until April 19, 2021, but when I open the products they say they are expiring in 10 days time. I have logged into my Autodesk account, and when I renewed Inventor, it asked me for which Educational institution I work for etc, and I did all that and it confirmed the renewal, and since then it says on my account page that I have access to Autodesk products until April 19, 2022. FeatureCAM was installed some time after Inventor and InventorCAM. The same thing that is happening with InventorCAM, is happening FeatureCAM. So I did it again, and got the congratulations email again, but I think tomorrow it will happen again. Today I open it again, SAME WARNING!!!! Now down to 11 days. The next day I opened Inventor, same warning about InventorCAM, so I did it again, and got the congratulations email again. I also received an email saying the same thing. So I clicked the activate button, the screen changed to 'congratulations on renewing, you have 12 months etc'. So straight away it ripped me off 3 months.įast forward to a few days ago, and when I opened up Inventor it came up with an alert that Inventor CAM would expire in 14 days. So I renewed it, and it came up that my 12 month licence had renewed and I had 12 months to go.

Some time ago I got a message ( either email or on Inventor I cant remember which ) saying my educational licence would expire in 90 days so I need to renew it. I have Inventor and InventorCAM, both installed on the same day.
