My uuid is not being recognized by AMPL.exe

When I type the command:
ampl: shell “amplkey activate --uuid ”;

Ampl reads back:
‘amplkey’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
exit value 1

I may have activated the uuid in the google colab page where you needed to run the code:
%pip install -q amplpy pandas matplotlib seaborn

from amplpy import AMPL, ampl_notebook

ampl = ampl_notebook(

modules=\["gurobi"\],  # modules to install

license_uuid="your-license-uuid",  # license to use

) # instantiate AMPL object and register magics

By activating my uuid here, did it void it being used in any other AMPL activation methods? If so I need someone to help me reactivate my uuid for the Windows version.

fyi: my uuid is for the AMPL Community Edition under my school account

Hi @Ian_Kong,

Thank you for reaching out. Are you trying to activate your license on an existing AMPL installation? In order to use Community Edition you need to reinstall the latest version of AMPL using the installer you can download form Homepage for AMPL - AMPL Portal. During the installation process it will ask you for the license UUID.
