Before you begin

This course walks the real setup, start to finish. It is not theory — by the end you will have done the thing once, and the test asks about what you actually did.

Passing gives you a licence key. The key is entered by the installer, binds to one drive, and is what lets you download the software at all.

Macs cannot boot this drive. Apple Silicon is a different processor — the installer image cannot run on it in any configuration. On a Mac, you install onto macOS instead. This comes up in the test, and it comes up in real life when somebody hands you their laptop.

What are you installing onto?

PC users get an extra module on firmware and boot order. Everyone is told about the Mac limitation regardless.

The course

Read each section. The test is drawn from these.

The test

Some questions cover mistakes that destroy data — an encrypted Windows partition, a wiped disk. Those must be right regardless of your overall score. A high percentage with one of those wrong is still a fail, because the point is not the number.

Move your licence to a new drive

A licence is bound to one drive. If that drive has failed or been lost, you can release it and register a new one yourself — you keep the same key, and nothing is re-issued.

Twice a year, with a week between. Copying the data folder across does not carry the licence; the new drive has to be registered by running the installer and entering the same key after you release it here.
