The problem is not with the free version of DraftSight, the problem is with their activation process.

#Draftsight 2016 activate failure software

To me, that is the final answer - I have heard from DraftSight's sales department ('Will the paid version work for us?' 'Sorry we don't answer questions from 'free' users.'), DraftSight's Project Manager (Mark Lyons: 'We do not offer support for the free version' ), and now our VAR ('You can try Safe Mode and Regedit' 'OK, what about the Linux version that is having the same issue?' 'Well, we really aren't supposed to offer support for the free version.') Nobody at any level at DraftSight will address an issue with their activation process, nor will they entertain an offer to purchase the software in order to receive support. We don't offer any support for the free version.' I spoke with our SolidWorks VAR, they arrived at the same conclusion as Dassault: 'Oh, that's the version that came with SolidWorks. Is this the type of support DSS provides for all of their products, or simply the ones that are 'included' with their other products? It is unfortunate that there is such poor support / service for a good product. But after the past 2 weeks, I have stopped entertaining that idea at all I am convinced that any technical issues that need resolved with *any* version will be fielded by the same lack of interest / lack of customer support (or possibly, lack of ability.) It would have been nice of them to have told their users - especially the ones (like me) who asked if purchasing the paid version would correct the issue.

I ultimately had to wait until the end of each day to return to the hotel, and do any DWG work in SolidWorks (which requires a VPN to my company to access the license server.) This still forced me to use the SW interface, which is not very user-friendly for files in DWG format, but it did at least allow me to export to DXF and use LibreCad.

#Draftsight 2016 activate failure trial

I just returned after spending 2 weeks out of country at a customer site.Дraftsight would not work for me at all neither my windows nor my Linux versions - They both would go no further than the 'Your trial period is over, you must activate.' window.ДЇortunately, I was able to get *some* work done using LibreCad, but their tooling supplier had sent every single file in DWG format, with no answer to repeated requests for DXF. So here I am 70+ dwg files to work on, and no way to get draftsight to work at all.Д¬an anyone please offer me any assistance at all?

#Draftsight 2016 activate failure driver

I spent wasted 3 hours last night googling and tweaking and rebooting my linux laptop I finally got it to launch without kicking up errors by using a deprecated video driver and a host of symlinks and bandaids to force it to use 32bit glx, but now there is almost nothing visible in the graphics window (including the crosshairs!) And, every time I launch it, it asks for me to activate it - and yet I have received NO activation emails.

Yesterday, I gave up and downloaded / installed it on my Linux box just so I could actually get some work done, but it does not run at all in Linux an extensive search online shows that it simply will not work on 64-bit Linux without swapping in 32-bit libraries, and even then it will most likely be dodgy.

I have followed the flowchart on this website, emailed the used a different email address just as a test, and have posted several requests for help on existing threads here. To clarify - when I first started using it 6 months ago, I was able to activate it the very first time. I have filled in my email etc countless times, but have not received any email reply that allows me to complete my activation. So now I am broadening my search for an answer:Д®very time I launch DraftSight, I am prompted to re-activate it. I sent this email to draftsight yesterday, as well as posting it on their forums I have also requested assistance from multiple emails on their site during the course of this week, and have also asked numerous times on existing threads on their forums that ask the same questions I have not heard one reply from their site, or them, at all.
