2016 License Upgrade
We have made changes to our licensing model and feature codes. In order to install the current and future releases and take advantage of new features you will need to upgrade your product and use a new serial number.
Required Product License Upgrade for Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2016
Named-user system-locked licenses are no longer shipped with a generic license file. A license file will be created during installation and is unique to the system it was installed on. The license file will not work on another system. See our End User License Agreement for maximum number of activations.
If you install the product on a system with Internet connection, use the SN during installation. If you need to install the product on a system without Internet connection you will need to generate the license file manually.
