How to transfer mathcad v15 to a new pc?

We have purchase matchcad v15 few years ago. The supplier send us the following guide last time with the host id.


We are trying to transfer it to a new pc now but it says host id doesn't match.


First, you need to unzip the license.txt file and save into a folder as Mathcad 15.
( You can use the Mathcad 15 CD to install.  )
Prior to installation, client ensure the pre requisite of MSFramework .net is install in the computer.
It is a free software from MS site if they dont have.
Upon installation, please click on Mathcad Icon.
It will ask you to choose license. It is NODE Locked.
And choose Browse, and browse to the license folder
whereby you save the license.txt file
It will take a min to verify and will work.

Pls advise Thank you

When you run the installer of Mathcad 15 you can see MAC-address of the network card, which will determine by the installer program. Compare it with the address of the network card listed in the license file.

To transfer a license file use "Reconfigure Software Licenses" option on PTC's site, here: http://www.ptc.com/appserver/lm/rsl/reconfig.jsp‌‌. When creating a request for a new license, you must specify the new MAC-address (from a new PC).

Hello Nerissa Danan,

If you meet the necessary requirements (for example product number), you can download it from the site (PTC) without problems.

Bye
