Installation Frequently Asked Questions
13. Multiple and network installations?
If you purchase multiple copies you can install the product such that network users can access the same installation. The benefit is that only this main installation (the First or Only Installation) needs to be updated when product updates are released. This main installation may be on a server, network share or any computer that can be accessed by the other network users.
Your networked computers are setup using the Additional Network User installation option. This installs several system files in the local Windows folder and places a short cut on the local desktop pointing to the main installation.
NOTE: Every installation on a networked computer must be activated with its own activation code. You will use your advance purchase code to obtain these activation codes until all activations have been used. If you need more activations for other network computers these will have to be purchased.
