Copy the ZIP file which automatically downloaded to your Workstation to the USB Media and unmount the media.

Move to your Isolated Workstation and attach your USB Media.  Copy the ZIP File to the Desktop and extract the files; once completed execute setup.exe and follow the installation procedure.

Once the install has completed open the newly installed software and you will be greeted with a Software Activation window.  There are 2 types of window as shown below. The first does not require you to enter the License Key where as the second one does require the entry of an Activation Id.  If you are required to enter the License Key Copy and Paste it from the Notepad file and press Generate Computer Id.
