A Registration Code is not the same as the Registration ID. The Registration Code registers your Serial Number to your OriginLab account The Registration ID registers your Origin installation to your OriginLab account

What is a Registration ID?

A Registration ID or RegID, is a nine-character (XXX-XXX-XXX) string that links your OriginLab account to your installation of Origin. Registration of your installation is not mandatory, but it helps the Support team with providing fuller support. A Registration ID is required to run Help:Check for Updates. It is also required to download Apps from the App Center and Templates from the Template Center. Registration occurs automatically during the Node-Locked licensing process. However, for packages with Dongle or Concurrent Network (xxxxx-xxxx-79xxxxx) license management, registration is separate from licensing.

How do I get a Registration ID?

To register your installation, please:

1. Go to the Origin software and select menu Help:Register on-line to open the Registration dialog.
2. Select the Click here to Register on-line and receive your Registration ID button.
3. Your web browser will open to the OriginLab website. Log-in or create an account.
4. A Registration ID will be created for you. Copy this ID and paste it back into Origin
