Good afternoon! I am a user of ArchiCAD 18 and use a Code Meter / key. I would like to install the software on my desktop so when I am in the office I can use either my desktop or laptop. Where do I download version 18? What will I need to install it? I have been searching through emails for information from the last time I updated but I can't seem to find anything.

Please help.....

Thanks!
John

I am registered but when I log in it shows version 15 and then says the serial # / code expired in 2012.
I have version 18 which isn't listed.

If it indicates that there is a serial number that expired then it means that you registered as a student for the software. Either create a new account and register as a professional then you can download the demo and install it as a regular version or write to the admin to see if they can switch the account from student to pro.

Thanks for the help....I will see about getting signed up as a pro, not sure why it would have me as a student but I believe it did say something about a student version.
