Question
I'm curious about the method to authenticate a SOILWORKS license.
Answer
There are two types of authentication methods for MIDAS software: 'Web authentication' which requires an internet connection, and 'Hardware Lock authentication' which involves inserting a USB device into the computer.
The two authentication methods are chosen at the time of product purchase, and you need to proceed with the authentication method accordingly when using the program. Below, the step-by-step processes for each authentication method are classified for your reference. Please follow the instructions provided to complete the authentication.
1. Run 'License Registration
After launching SOILWORKS, click on "Tools" in the top menu bar, then navigate to "License" and select "License Registration" to open the license registration window.
2. After selecting the authentication method, proceed with the authentication process
At the top of the active "License Registration" window, select the authentication method and proceed with the authentication.
- Web Authentication Method (Web Authentication)
1) Select [Web Authentication].
2) Enter 'ID / Password / Authentication Code' in the 'License Registration' field.
3) Click the [Product Selection] button.
4) In the activated 'Product Selection' window, choose the desired product.
5) Click the [Renewal] button at the bottom of the 'Product Selection' window, then click [OK].
6) Click the [OK] button at the bottom of the 'License Registration' window.
- USB Lock Authentication Method (H/W Authentication)
1) Insert the Hardware Lock into the main body.
2) Select [H/W Authentication].
3) Enter the 'Authorization Code' in the 'License Registration' field.
4) Click the [OK] button at the bottom of the 'License Registration' window.
If you do not want to see the 'License Registration' window every time SOILWORKS is launched, check the 'Do not show this dialog at program startup' option at the bottom of the 'License Registration' window.
