How to install Autocad 2013 silently without registration key?
Silent switch for setup is "setup.exe /w /t /q setup.ini"
It shows following error message as we dont have registration key.
Setup is unable to validate your serial number or product key. Please run setup again via the command line, using the following syntax.
(The following should all appear on one command line.)
<full path to installation Setup.exe> /t /Language <product_language>
/c ACAD: INSTALLDIR=<product_install_path>
ACADSERIALPREFIX=<nnn> ACADSERIALNUMBER=<nnnnnnnn> ADLM_PRODKEY=<NNNNN>
ACADFIRSTNAME=<first_name> ACADLASTNAME=<last_name> ACADORGANIZATION=<organization_name>
InstallLevel=5

There is a fully functional trail version (30 days) is available for AutoCAD 2013. Why don't you try with that trail registration key..
we are a classroom environment, we were creating an admin install on the server that has the reg info in the install already. We talked to autodesk and they switched us over to a flexLM style of licensing no extra cost, much less hassles.
Comments:
-
application should able to install silently without registration and user should be able to register it. No registration key is with us. we have to proceed with 30 days trial period. - appfreak 12 years ago

Why do you need to deploy it silent with a 30 day trial? - Timanator 12 years ago

You need to create a deployment INI through Create Deployment Option which comes when you launch the setup. This will decrease create an admin image of the package. - vmnit 12 years ago
I'm taking a guess here, but the OP might be trying to package and deploy to the requesters, which would enter their own key purchased by their own budgets once they fire up the app for teh first time?
have you contact Autodesk to see if that is supported?
You may have better luck by finding the msi setup calls and run it with MsiExec.exe /qn /i. I believe it is .\x86\acad\acad.msi
I too got the same error while trying to install using setup.ini file. Used command like setup.exe /t /Language en-us /C ACAD: C:\users\desktop\setup.ini file which has below information like
INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2014"
ACADSERIALPREFIX="nnn"
ACADSERIALNUMBER="nnnnnnnn"
ADLM_PRODKEY="NNNNN"
ACDFIRSTNAME="A"
ACADLASTNAME="User"
ACADORGANIZATION=User Corporation"
INSTALLLEVEL=5
but received same error saying
<full path to installation Setup.exe> /t /Language <product_language>
/c ACAD: INSTALLDIR=<product_install_path>
ACADSERIALPREFIX=<nnn> ACADSERIALNUMBER=<nnnnnnnn> ADLM_PRODKEY=<NNNNN>
ACADFIRSTNAME=<first_name> ACADLASTNAME=<last_name> ACADORGANIZATION=<organization_name>
InstallLevel=5
Tried to use MsiExec.exe /qn /i .\x86\acad\acad.msi, but it giving error saying AutoCAD Mechanical 2014 - english installation need to run from setup.exe
Kinldy help me to install silently.
