How do I find my licence number?
To find your licence number:
1. Open ArtiCAD.
2. Click 'Help' and select 'About'.
3. Your Licence will be displayed here.

ArtiCAD stopped supporting dongles in 2012 and moved to the deployment of electronic licences.
If you are still using a dongle, we recommend swapping this to an electronic licence. Please
contact your local ArtiCAD Support Team to discuss this.
