- Be sure to type the your license code correctly. It can be very easy to confuse zeros and \u201co\u2019s.\u201d It\u2019s also easy to type \u201c1\u201d for \u201cL\u201dand \u201c3\u201d for \u201cB.\u201d <\/LI>
\n<\/UL><\/p>\n- The license must be entered precisely. Capital letters are different from lower case letters for this license, so be sure to type it exactly as shown on your registration email. You\u2019ll know you got it right when the OK button activates.<\/LI>

\n<\/UL><\/p>\n- If you\u2019re still getting errors, it can be because you installed to a folder with a special character (for example, an accented character).If so, please remove Solid Edge and re-install it to a folder that doesn\u2019t include special characters.<\/LI>
\n<\/UL><\/p>\n- Finally \u2013 check the SELicense.dat file that is located in the Solid Edge ST8Preferences folder. If this file has not been updated on the day that you entered your license information, then it may be that you don\u2019t have write access to that folder. Confirm that you have write access, and start the License Utility again (Start button > All Programs > Solid Edge > Licensing > License Utility). You can open a license file with a text editor such as Notepad; a properly written file should have more than a single line in it.<\/LI>
