Operating system
Section titled “Operating system”To run the latest version of Designer your system needs to have a Designer license. Licenses are obtained through MyDisguise, and can be activated either directly on the machine (a dongle-less solution) or on a USB CodeMeter dongle, available for purchase from the Disguise Store.
Virtual Machines - Parallels
Section titled “Virtual Machines - Parallels”Virtual Machines like Parallels do not run Designer, since Disguise requires DirectX11. Bootcamp may be used, but only if you are working on a pre-M1/M2 Mac platform.
Designer software
Section titled “Designer software”For how to download and install the latest version, see Designer download and installation.
If you are installing onto a Disguise media server, check the product compatibility table first. It lists, for every server model, the earliest and latest Designer versions supported, whether that model can run the current release, and which OS image it needs.
If you encounter any issues with the installation of the Designer software or license, please contact the Support Team for assistance.
