VWEVAL Activation

Users that have used the 30-day temporary serial number (VWEVAL-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx) may experience an issue when the 30 days has elapsed where they are asked to reactivate their license of Vectorworks, but when they click "Activate" they are told their serial number is invalid.

To correct this issue, you will require your full Vectorworks license key to replace the VWEVAL token and you will need to follow the instructions below:



Windows:

Go to the Start Menu and either in the Run bar or the Start Search bar type: "regedit"

Windows XP:


Windows Vista / Windows 7:


Expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Nemetschek, right click on the "Vectorworks 15" folder and choose "Delete"



Empty the Recycle Bin and relaunch Vectorworks. You should now be able to enter the new license key.



Mac:

Go to HD:Users:(Your User Folder):Library:Preferences, place the "
net.nemetschek.vectorworks.license.2010.plist" and the "net.nemetschek.vectorworks.2010.plist" files in the trash.



Do the same for HD:Library:Preferences: "net.nemetschek.vectorworks.2010.plist"

Empty the trash, then relaunch Vectorworks. You should now be able to enter the new license key.
