Question
Do I need to install DHI License Manager 2026 separately on my PC?
Answer
DHI License Manager is used to enable MIKE Powered by DHI software to run as Demo, Internet or Network mode.
If you are using an internet license or connecting to a network server supplied by your company administrator, you don't need to install DHI License Manager separately, instead only installing MIKE Software, for example MIKE 21, MIKE+ or FEFLOW. You can choose to connect to the license during or after the installation.
If you are a company admin and you need to set up the license manager for users, you need to install DHI License Manager separately on the server.
