Mathcad Activation

Mathsoft has implemented activation for purchasers of single-user versions of Mathcad to ensure that users have purchased a valid licensed copy of the software.

Activating "locks" your Mathcad installation to your system by identifying key elements of your hardware configuration. As long as your hardware configuration does not change dramatically, you should not need to repeat the activation process. Uninstalling and re-installing Mathcad does not require the purchase of an additional license. Should you need to reactivate your installation, Mathcad will launch an Activation Wizard to guide you through the process.

When you activate your Mathcad installation, no personal information is submitted to Mathsoft, except as necessary to process your activation request. For example, if you activate by email, you must provide an email address so that we can fulfill your request. The activation process is designed to be as anonymous as possible and is only used to authenticate your installation.
