Install your product

Product installation varies according to which method you use:

• Simple download from Autodesk Account at manage.autodesk.com.
• Custom Install from Autodesk Account to configure the installer before you download and install.

From a simple download, products install with the base configuration.

1. Sign in to your account at manage.autodesk.com.
2. From the All Products and Services tab in your account, select a product and one of the download/install methods (see Download methods).

• If you choose the Install method, your product will download and install in one operation. This method includes product updates.
• If you choose the Download method, run the EXE file (Windows), mount the DMG file (macOS), or extract the TAR file (Linux) associated with your product and version. This method includes product updates.

  Note: For Windows, most 2022 and later products use the Autodesk Create Installer.

  
  
  

  Run the small exe to create the installer in your downloads folder.

• If you choose the Direct Download method:
  • For a Windows product, run the self-extracting executable file that can be extracted and installed offline.
  • For macOS or Linux, use your browser download features.

  Note: For most products, this method does not include updates.
