To activate a license on a computer that has no connection to the internet, go to https://license.vizrt.com and login with your Vizrt Community user on a different computer that has internet connection. Alternatively, you can go directly to the license portal when you are logged into the Vizrt Community Portal.

  1. To activate a license, navigate to the Licenses Tab within the portal where you will see the currently available licenses. Click the Activate Licenses button to start.
