Troubleshooting

After logging into your account, the browser should open a pup-up for the Auth Handler in order to activate KeyShot.


If the pop-up does not appear, you try the option to "Sign in with code".
You can copy the URL of the browser window where you signed in to your account during the activation process and paste it into the textbox and click "Sign In".

Please note that using this method, the URL is only valid for a limited time.
