Question

MathCad 14 license over the Internet - Server Error

I don't have a customer number or SCN, just a web account to manage my license.

I have a version of Mathcad 14, I know it's old, but it works for what I do.

My problem is reinstalling it on a new Windows 11 Laptop. It is on my Windows 10 Laptop but after a Windows update the operating system failed and is irreparable.

 

The link I had to the Single User License is:
https://support.ptc.com/appserver/lm/mathcad/call_logger/callLogger.jsp, and it worked but after entering the product code I get this error message:

Invalid parameter values have been passed in. The application cannot continue.

 

I couldn't log a case from that screen as well.  

 

From what I'm reading MathCad license retrieval may no longer be supported.    I May have to abandon it and go to Smath Studio or some other program.

Hi Andrew, 

I should think that this is a kind of posting where not users of Prime, but PTC employees should step in and help the OP with transferring the license if possible.
