PTC Mathcad 15 Student Edition - Licensing Problem

[dedgar]

I have downloaded (twice) the Mathcad 10 for the suggested Host ID and Mathcad still states:
License Status: Invalid & License Type: No License and when Mathcad is opened Çreated with PTC Mathcad Express'.
Please note I have a ''PTC Mathcad 15 Student Edition – Perpetual License'which came with Mathcad Prime 3.1. I am unsure where i could download Mathcad 15 and the only option appears to download Mathcad Prime 10.
Any advice how I can get any version of Mathcad up and running would be greatly appreciated..

Regards
Dave

You should be aware of this: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad-Tips/Official-PTC-Mathcad-15-and-Prime-1-6-End-of-Sale-Announcement/ta-p/818870

All download possibilities for Mathcad (15 and prior) and Prime (1 to 6) have been removed.

And regarding your student license: You may have a perpetual license for Prime 3.1, but that doesn't entitle you to use a licensed Prime 10.

To fully use Prime 10, you'd have to buy a subscription (yes, a yearly fee is the only option nowadays).

Success!

Is that the definition of Perpetual?

[LucMeekes]

A license for Prime 3.1 doesn't grant you usage of Prime 10. That should be no surprise.

Perpetual (when it comes to computer program licenses) is as long as the issuing company wishes to count.
