Activate PC (Assign Seat)
ARC Pro subscriptions are assigned to computers and are called Seat Licensing. When loading ARC Pro on a computer for the first time, you will be prompted to activate a seat for that particular computer. Press the "activate" button and a seat license will be applied to the computer.
Managing Seats
View your subscription portal by pressing the Account option in the top right, and selecting Subscriptions from the menu. Here, you can view your subscription activity and manage seats assigned to the license. The name of each computer is displayed. Pressing the Revoke button will remove the computer from the license.
