How to Install and Activate DataGrip on Windows and macOS
This guide walks you through downloading the latest DataGrip version, installing it on Windows or macOS, and using provided activation scripts to successfully activate the IDE, including step‑by‑step instructions, required command‑line operations, and verification of activation status.
1. Download and Install DataGrip
Visit the official JetBrains website, download the latest DataGrip version (e.g., 2023.2), and run the installer. After installation, open DataGrip; when prompted for an activation key, close the application to prepare for activation.
2. Download Activation Tools
Extract the activation package you downloaded, keeping the folder unchanged and avoiding Chinese characters in the path. Open the scripts directory.
Windows
Inside the scripts folder, you will find uninstall-all-users.vbs and install-current-user.vbs among other files.
macOS
Inside the scripts folder, you will find uninstall.sh and install.sh scripts.
3. Activate DataGrip on Windows
Run uninstall-all-users.vbs by double‑clicking it to clear any previous activation data.
When a "done" dialog appears, the cleanup succeeded.
Next, run install-current-user.vbs by double‑clicking it; wait about 10 seconds for a "done" dialog indicating successful activation.
Open DataGrip again and enter the provided activation key.
4. Activate DataGrip on macOS
Open Terminal.
Execute uninstall.sh (e.g., sh /path/to/uninstall.sh ) to remove any prior activation data; a "done" message confirms success.
Run install.sh similarly; a "done" message and a subsequent "kill" notice indicate successful activation.
Reopen DataGrip and input the activation key.
5. Activation Demonstration
After entering the activation key, the IDE shows a "Licensed" status, confirming activation until December 31, 2099. Note that future JetBrains updates may invalidate the activation, so maintain contact for ongoing support.
How to Retrieve the Activation Package
Reply to the public account "DataGrip" or contact the backend service to obtain the activation files.
