Designated Computer License Administration

R2026b

A Designated Computer License authorizes you to install and run MathWorks^® software on only one computer. The installation is restricted for use to a host ID that identifies a particular computer, but not a particular user. Any number of people can log in and use the software, but not simultaneously.

Note

Users on a Designated Computer License must be physically present to use the software. The Designated Computer License does not allow remote access.

To install MathWorks products available through a Designated Computer License, run the MathWorks product installer. During installation, sign in to your MathWorks Account, select the license that you want to install, and provide the information requested by the other installer dialog boxes. The installer determines which products to install based on the license you specify.

To install MathWorks products on a specific device, select one of the following installation options.

• Standard installation — To perform a standard online installation, follow the instructions in Download and Install MATLAB.

• Offline installation — To install products on an offline machine, follow the instructions in Install Products on Offline Computer.
