Overview
OLI now uses a preferred method of securing our software from piracy. We call this Named User. This section explains how to download and install OLI software for the first time as a Named User.
Download the software and create an account
Check to make sure you’re installing the latest version of OLI software. You can download the software at downloads.olisystems.com.
At this point, you should have received an email from OLI directing you to create an account with us. Please complete this step before proceeding.
If you have not received an email to set up your account, please submit a ticket to the OLI Support Center, and we will respond promptly.
With Named Users, OLI software is activated over the internet. Setting up the software is done in two steps:

Then click Install.
