Mark,
For clarification, you can check with Freedom Scientific to be certain. But,
you are allowed three license keys as I understand it. This is for the
purpose of allowing someone to use one at work, one at home, and perhaps a
laptop. Read the License agreement. You can only use one copy at

You must designate a folder when you begin the unzipping. Your root
folder probably will not allow a file to be copied to it.
