I've recently finished my first year of college and was given a 2 year license of Solidworks 2016 Student Edition. I'd like to transfer the license over to my desktop PC and I can see how to do that except I cannot for the life of me figure out how to download SolidWorks onto my desktop to reactivate the license. Any help would be great thanks.

Yeah I can do that but I don't know how to get SolidWorks on my second computer to reactivate it.
"Active subscription service contract required for full access." I can't register my Solidworks 2016 Student Edition on the normal Product registry. I'm not sure if my school has an account with all the serial numbers it gave out and I don't actually have control over the product or not.
You were given a license or you were allowed to use a school student license?.
I couldn't tell you for sure actually, but I have a serial number and I can transfer the license.
I would contact your schools IT Dept, or whoever gave you the license info.
Were you given the installation files also along with the license details?
You have to release the license from the initial install before you can use it for another.
