I've installed an old version, 14.0, on my Windows 11 computer. Installation went fine. The version came with a Mathcad book that I bought in 2007. When I try to start the program, I'm asked for license info that I don't have. I ran the program long ago and with out issue on previous computers I owned and I'd like to do so now. Can you please enable the program for me? Purchasing the book entitled me to run the software that came with it. I don't recall having a licensing issue on previous computers.

Well, now you do have a licensing issue, or at least a challenge, and it doesn't depend on your computer. You should know this: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad-Tips/Official-PTC-Mathcad-15-and-Prime-1-6-End-of-Sale-Announcement/ta-p/818870

Your only chance to get Mathcad 14 officially licensed on your new computer is to contact PTC support and hope they can help you. Note that PTC support is NOT this forum which is for users of the software.

 

Success!
