Topic: Reinstalling software to new computerPosted: 23.Aug.2024 at 13:38 |

Hi, I run AutoCAD Architecture 2010 on my old desktop, which has Windows XP OS
I want to reinstall the software on a new desktop with Windows 11. Is this possible? When I originally installed it I had difficulty registering it, and had to contact an AutoCAD reseller for help. Unfortunately I no longer have a subscription, as being semi-retired I can't afford it, I also cannot afford new software. I have the original installation disc, complete with: Part No, Serial Number, and Product key. Can anyone help me please?

Cloning the entire drive over might work, but then you've got issues of will windows itself work, and then gotta install new drivers to match everything. (And particularly picky copy protection/activation systems for software may still reject you)

Such old version probably won't get re-activated by Autodesk. And it is not compatible with Win11, so it is not worth trying.
