When we create new install files, we remove the license file so that we can offer the install files free on our web store. When an annual license is purchased, the web receipt and email confirmation include two download links: one for the install files and one for the serial number files.

This allows us to simplify the process for department purchasing agents who need to purchase products for end users and end users who need to install the software. The purchasing agent is responsible to provide the license file or serial number information to the end user. The end user can then purchase the install files free on our web store.

If a customer purchases the free install files, they are not able to install the product unless they have a license file.
