I have installed Visual Studio 2019 Professional using the online installer und logged in with my account with Visual Studio Professional subscription (obtained via MAPS).
Now this PC was moved to a location where internet access is not available because of security restrictions and I want to continue using Visual Studio to debug the applications running on this PC.
My problem is: After 30 days without internet connection my license gets deactivated and I cant activate it again.
Which options do I have for offline activation?
I should add that I am able to manuall copy files from and to the PC.

Hi Anna
Sorry for the late reply.
Unfortunately the article did not help me because I do not have a product key. Also my subscription (obtained via Microsoft Action Pack subscription) does not support claiming a product key.
Dear customer, for your issue, please go to https://www.visualstudio.com/subscriptions/support/ to contact the Visual Studio Subscription supporter. Thanks for your understanding.
