Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What should I do if the Archicad code cannot be activated?
If your Archicad code cannot be activated, the sources point to a few common causes and steps you should follow to resolve the issue:
- Check for spaces: This is the most common problem. Make sure there are no spaces at the beginning or end of the code or the User ID when copying and pasting.
- A red error mark usually means there is an extra space or a typing mistake.
- Verify the User ID: Make sure you entered the correct User ID provided by the support team, usually your registration email.
- License type: Be sure to select “Education License” in the program when asked for your license type.
- Green check mark: Only click “Activate and Restart” once a green check mark appears next to the input fields. This indicates that all entered information is correct and accepted.
