Q: Can I install LP Works on two computers?
A: Only one computer at a time if using a USB dongle. Network licenses allow multiple, but concurrent sessions are limited.
Q: My download link expired. What do I do?
A: Contact your machine supplier. They can regenerate a link or send via secure FTP.
Q: Does LP Works work on Windows 11?
A: Yes, versions 5.2 and newer are certified. Older v4.x may need compatibility mode (Windows 8).
Q: I lost my license file. Can I recover it?
A: Only the original OEM can reissue it. Keep a backup on a cloud drive.
Q: Is training required?
A: Not strictly, but complex die-cutting workflows benefit from at least 2 hours of OEM-led training. Ask your supplier for a video tutorial after install.
