License selection
If you’ve purchased multiple copies of the program, you can choose which license to use at this step. The parentheses show the number of instances already installed for this license. 2/3 means the program has already been installed on two computers, with a maximum allowed of 3 installations.
Activate license on this computer
*The Pro edition can be installed on up to three computers at the same time. ProjectMaker will work on all three, but ZennoDroid/ZennoPoster will only work on the activated machine! You can activate it in your *Personal Account.
To clarify with an example: You installed the program on a server and on your home computer. The server is the activated hardware, and ZennoPoster runs there, while you develop templates on your home computer. If you want to install the program on another computer and check this box, you will activate the hardware for the new installation, and ZennoPoster on the server will stop working!
When the installation is complete, you can click “*Start” to launch ProjectMaker, or close the window by clicking the X in the upper right corner.
