more computers than the number of licenses you have purchased. For example,
you can purchase 25 licenses but install them on 40 computers for ease of
access. At any one time, products can run on the maximum number of
computers for which you have licenses. This means you get a true floating
license. A network licensing system can also be configured to allow users to
borrow a license for a limited time to use on a computer disconnected from
the network.

How can I see what is included in a default in-
stallation?
To see what is installed during a default installation, go through the installation
process to the Product Configuration page. The products selected here are
installed in a default installation. If you click a selected product box to open
the configuration panel, you can see the default settings for subcomponents
and features.
Is it possible to change the installation folder
when adding or removing features?
After your product is installed, you cannot change the installation path.
Changing the path while adding features results in program corruption, so it
is not an option.
