[EN] FAQ 004506 | The network license includes both 2D and 3D licenses of RFEM/RSTAB.

Question:
The network license includes both 2D and 3D licenses of RFEM/RSTAB. How can I ensure that I use the 2D version and not the 3D license?

Answer:
The problem is that the installation only creates the shortcut to the 3D version on the desktop.

When starting the program, the authorization is checked. If a 3D version is available, the 3D version is also started. However, if no 3D version is available, the system checks whether a 2D version is licensed. If this is the case, the restricted 2D version is started automatically.

In order to start the 2D version with an existing 3D license, it is necessary to modify the link on the desktop.

Copy the link and rename it accordingly.

Then, right-click the shortcut, select "Properties" from the shortcut menu, and add "/2D" to the path to *64.exe.
