Visual Studio 2013 Static Activation Key option

 ·   ·  ☕ 1 min read

I have read people’s complaints about the need to sign in to Visual Studio 2013 for it to run, without a possibility of running a disconnected/offline setup.
Introducing a static activation key licensing option (which I just discovered) - you can obtain it from your MSDN subscription page.

Just browse to where you would normally download the ISO, and then click on “Product Keys”.

vs 2013 msdn download view

You will see a popup similar to the following:

vs 2013 msdn product keys view

Under “Product Keys” you will have your key listed. Use it to activate/update your VS 2013 license.

Note: In some subscriptions this option is unavailable.
