SUMMARY

Foundry Login licensing gives you the flexibility to use your license on different machines without needing to transfer license files. You must have a valid entitlement on your Foundry account before activating. You can view your current Login licenses and entitlements via the Login License page on the Foundry website. 
 

These steps are for Individual licenses only. If you are using a Team license, the steps to activate a Team license can be found here: Q100660: How to activate your Team Login license
