3. Save the file to disk. Be sure to make a note of the location you save it to. You may like to save it to your desktop so it is easy to find.

Guidelines for registering your free software

1. The first time you run your free software, the Serif Registration Wizard will appear. In order to start using PhotoPlus you will need to register online.

2. Click "Start Registration" to connect to the internet and start the registration process. Make sure you're connected to the internet. Your software will need to access our website in order to send you your registration key.

3. Enter the details requested. Please make sure your details are accurate as we will send your registration key to the email address you provide. You will need to enter this registration key later in the process in order to continue using your free software.

5. Click the Next button. A page will appear to let you know that we have sent your registration key to the email address you provided. We recommend you take the time to join the Serif community while you're online.

6. Check your inbox. You should have received an email from donotreply@freeserifsoftware.com. This email contains your registration key. If you have not received this email, please follow the steps below:

a. Wait 10 mins to see if the email has simply been delayed.
b. If your email client (for example Outlook) has a Send/ Receive button, click it.

If you have still not received our email, please follow these further instructions:

a. Add donotreply@freeserifsoftware.com to your list of known or trusted email addresses. This is often referred to as a safe list or white list. Alternatively you could temporarily disable your spam filter.
b. Close the software down. Restart the software and repeat the registration process. This will re-generate your registration key email.
c. If you have still not received your registration key after trying all of the above steps, please contact support.

7. Return to your free software. You should see the screen below.

8. Your registration key has been emailed to you. Enter your registration key in the box. Click the Next button. If your key doesn't work, please follow the steps below:

a. Double-check that the registration key is entered correctly as it is case sensitive. We recommend that you cut & paste directly from the email.
b. If you have downloaded more than one program from FreeSerifSoftware.com, please check that you are attempting to unlock the right bit of software. It sounds obvious, but you'd be surprised how often it happens!

9. If your registration key still fails to work, please restart the software and repeat the registration process to generate a new registration key.
