Which DSA awarded software have a key checker or license activation help?

Which DSA awarded software have a key checker, email invite or license activation help?

What are the different software activation types?

A large number of DSA awarded software use email invites for activation. Some have licence key checkers you can, or in some cases must use to register, download and install the correct version of your software. Lastly, some require online registration, especially if a free or University controlled software, such as Microsoft Office.

Below is a list of the most common awarded software; before installing any software, it is recommended to uninstall any random downloaded version, especially if it did not work with your Key, invite or online registration.

If your software is not listed, specific instructions have likely been emailed, although in most instances, checking for the software in articles search above is your best bet.

For the lists below, click on the software name in the first column for the specific article or key checker, the second column/column on the right likely goes to the same thing, or may list additional instruction articles/point to known issues with activation for the software.

Everway/Claro/texthelp have their own unique ways of activating some software, and as such have their own dedicated section (save for Scholarcy for now) at the bottom of section 2.

In almost all instances/unless specified for section 2 and 3/online account software, it is either necessary to sign up for an account/free trial of a software, or does not hurt to do so before clicking the link/registering, then clicking the key checker/link again to input your key/code/license. In some instances, this registration is a part of the key check process/hap[pens during the registration process.
If already signed in/if you already have an account setup, the key checker will usually just ask for the key and then apply it to your account.

For ANY SOFTWARE, in any section a quick article search may be more beneficial, though of activating multiple software/going through your shipnote or a check list this article is most helpful.

2. KEY CHECKERS/LICENSE ACTIVATORS:

Most keys/codes/licences are available on the Study Tech website you used/you use for your assessment or to book training and mentoring. In addition our dispatch team often send a ship note attached to an email within 10 working days (either side) of you receiving your equipment/peripherals/order, which should have any license keys or codes on the last page.

NB: Some of these key checkers are in the beta or even alpha stage of testing, so may not be fully featured.  However, if listed here they are likely the best or only way to activate your software.

With the testing of some in mind, any spaces should be removed from any fields before submission, e.g. a space after or before a name, an incorrect character in an email, such as a full stop at the end, can cause an error. In addition, some information on the pages may be old or outdated, for instance, referring to a specific character length, but in fact, multiple lengths can be used.
