A user purchases a single-use software license for their main desktop computer. According to the typical terms for this license type, which of the following actions is permitted?
Sharing the license key with a coworker to install on their computer.
Making copies of the software to sell to others.
Installing the software on the desktop and a laptop for simultaneous use.
Installing the software on the single desktop computer.
A single-use software license typically grants the right to install and use the software on only one computer. Sharing the license with coworkers or installing it for use on multiple machines would violate this type of agreement. While some modern subscription-based licenses may permit installation on a secondary device for the same user, the standard single-use model is one license per machine. Making and selling copies of the software is a copyright violation.
