To do the offline activation, you first need the device ID. This can be found in MAGNET Tools.

Open MAGNET Tools. 

A message will appear prompting activation.

Click Next.

If you accidentally click the X, MAGNET Tools will open in Demo mode. Demo mode just means the license is not activated yet.

Select Offline.

Click Next.

Make sure the Device ID is set to Computer.

Open Notepad, and copy down the 15-digit Device ID in ALL CAPS with the dashes as seen in the example below:

Example Device ID: 04A7M-N258P-9Q8FC
