pt-access-configurator is a standalone Windows utility designed to streamline the process of configuring Avid Pro Tools license and product key access for the Full Access tier. It is distributed as a single .exe file — no runtime, interpreter, or build step required.
Note
This tool operates entirely on your local machine. No account credentials or license data are transmitted externally during normal operation.
Tip
Run the executable once with default settings before customizing advanced options. This establishes a stable baseline configuration that most users will not need to change.

| OS | Windows 10 (64-bit) or later |
| Architecture | x64 |
| Disk Space | 50 MB free |
