While there is no single universal password for CutMate 2.3 , the "installation password" typically refers to the license key

You have a password, but the installer keeps rejecting it. Try these solutions:

Step 3 – Contact official support.

Go to the official CutMate website or your distributor’s support page. Provide:

  1. Email confirmation: Check the inbox used during purchase. Look for the subject line: "Your CutMate 23 License Key & Installation Password."
  2. Product box / CD sleeve: Printed on a sticker inside the jewel case or on the back of the manual.
  3. Distributor portal: If bought through a reseller, log into their customer portal.
  4. USB dongle (older versions): Some legacy licenses require a hardware dongle that auto-fills the password.

Because this is proprietary, paid software, JETCAM protects its intellectual property through a hardware lock (dongle) or a software-based license key (installation password). Without this password, the installation will not proceed beyond the initial setup wizard.

What is CutMate 23?

2. Company Transition

  1. Treat the installation password like any administrative credential: record it, secure it, and, if possible, change it during setup.
  2. Use a password manager or secure record — not a sticky note stuck to the device.
  3. If acquiring a used CutMate 23, require the seller to provide the installation password or perform a factory reset in front of you with proof of ownership.
  4. For organizations deploying many units, centralize credential management and include installation passwords in asset onboarding checklists.
  5. When in doubt, contact authorized support with the device serial number rather than attempting unofficial workarounds that could void warranty.
