How to licence?

Question

Hi, I just reinstalled Trados 2021 after resetting my licence and I do not know how to active the licence. Can you please help me? I think I need the activation code and I don't know where to find it ... Thanks!

Hello Dany Brouillette 
 You can find your license in your RWS account under Products & Plans > Licenses. To login in your RWS account go to: https://oos.sdl.com/ 
 Thank you,

Hello, 
 You need to open Studio > click Activate > copy the license code and click Activate again. 
 If you don`t have the Activate option when you open Studio please follow the below steps: 
 
 Close Studio. 
 Go to: C:\ProgramData\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16\Data 
 Rename the file Studio.lic, e.g. to Studio_old.lic. 
 Reactivate Studio. 
 
 Note: If you can't find the path above, open Windows File Explorer, click on View and check "Hidden Items" checkbox. 
 Thank you, 
 Sorin

Hello Dany Brouillette 
 I`ve checked your account and the license seems to be activated now. Can you confirm if everything is ok? 
 If not, please send a screenshot with the error message and I`ll log a support case for you, no need to buy a support contract for this. 
 Thank you,
