Having trouble downloading files?
1. Check which account you're logged into
If you are logged into a different account in your browser, Chargerware files will not be available to you. They're only shared with @uah.edu accounts. It is not uncommon for a user to be logged into his or her web browser as a different account (a @gmail.com or @yahoo.com account, for example). If you wish to remain logged into your other account, then access Chargerware in a different web browser or use private browsing.
2. Check who the software is available to
The table on http://chargerware.uah.edu shows which users (faculty, staff, students) a product is available to; please note that some products are not available to students.
No products are provided for prospective students or alumni. Only current faculty, staff, and students can access the software in Chargerware.
Product Keys and Access Codes
Certain software packages require a product key. When this is required you will see a link to download a file (typically a PDF) containing the product key. The file may be viewable (without downloading). The product key will be available to you if you are authorized to install the software.
Log out of Chargerware
Chargerware uses Google Workspace credentials (your official UAH email address and password; your UAH Google password is the same password you use for myUAH). If you're using a shared computer's web browser to access Chargerware, be sure to sign out when you are finished.
Need more help?
If your credentials are not accepted or you do not remember your Charger ID/password, please use http://reset.uah.edu to change your password.
