New License transfer in 2010

For those folks (like myself) who work with multiple machines and aren’t using network licenses, the Autodesk Portable License Utility has been a relatively easy way to shift licenses around. Not to mention providing a way to do a planned reimage of a machine.
We have had several people who have called asking where the Portable License Utility shortcut is in the 2010 versions. Well, the answer is that it’s not there. The Portable License Utility has been replaced by a web tool that allows you to perform your license transfer. Now, your shortcut, called simply “License Transfer Utility” connects to the web and allows transfer your stand-alone licenses. Each shortcut is product specific, so you need to run the utility from the folder for the product you want to transfer.
Autodesk has a video discussing the tools and a demonstration of the tool on YouTube. Check it out:
