Getting started with Spot
Installation
Open the file setup.exe to install Spot and follow the on-screen instructions. Make sure your dongle is connected
to your computer before starting the program and that it remains connected throughout the current session.
The first time you run Spot you will be asked to activate the product using your product key. This is a unique 35character identifier that will have been provided to you after purchasing the program. When asked for the key,
make sure you are connected to the Internet, enter the 35 character code and click OK.
Spot will start once the key has been validated.
You will be asked to enter your product key each time you install and run the program for the first time on a new
machine, so make sure you keep it safe. You are allowed a maximum of five activations. In other words, you may
install Spot up to five times on different computers.
