Understand Administrative Permission Requirements
To install Autodesk Navisworks, you must have administrator permissions.
You do not need to have domain administrative permissions. See your system administrator for information
about administrative permissions.
To run Autodesk Navisworks, you do not need administrator permissions. You can run the program as a limited
user.
Avoid Data Loss During Installation
The Autodesk Navisworks installation process may stop if some applications (such as Microsoft
®
Outlook
®
or
virus-checking programs) are running.
Close all running applications to avoid possible data loss.
Choose a Language
You can select a different language for installation instructions, and a language for individual product installations
in the same install process.
When you start the installation process, the installer automatically determines your operating system language.
If a supported language is detected, your install pages are displayed in that language. If you want to change that
language, you select a different one from the Installer Language list on the first page of the Installation wizard.
NOTE Some products may not have multi-language support at the time of product release. Additional language
support may be available later. Check http://support.autodesk.com for the availability of additional language packs.
Using Language Packs
Language packs support use of different languages in each Autodesk Navisworks product, including exporters.
Pack names start with NAVFREE_, NAVREV_, NAVSIM_, NAVMAN_, and exporters_ respectively.
NOTE You must install at least one language pack for each product.
It is possible to install additional language packs to Autodesk Navisworks products later. You can manually install
the required language packs by double-clicking on the language pack MSI file.
Language packs are located on the installation DVD and unpacked downloaded media under the x86 folder for
32-bit products and under the x64 folder for 64-bit products.
Language packs for specific products are included in the NAVFREE, NAVREV, NAVSIM, NAVMAN, and
NWEXPORT subfolders of x86 and x64 folders.
