Since release 2000i AutoCAD has been using a software lock in which the licence for use has to be authorised. An authorised licence may be transferred to another workstation using the Portable License Utility (PLU). This tool is generally installed along with AutoCAD and can be started via the Windows Start/Programs/AutoCAD menu. The transfer of a licence may be required for example when a new computer is purchased to replace an old computer, or if one wants to use a licence at home in the evenings.
