Respondus LE can be downloaded for free. However, you may first want to review the system requirements before downloading the software.

Important Instructions:
There are 4 steps to downloading and installing Respondus LE. Here's an overview:

1. Download the installation program.

2. Install Respondus LE, start the software, and obtain the Product ID# displayed on the opening screen.

3. Go to www.respondus.com to register your copy of Respondus LE. The activation password is immediately e-mailed to you.

4. Enter the password in Respondus LE to activate the program. That's it!

Step 1 — Download the Installation Program
The installation program for Respondus LE can be downloaded from one of the locations listed below:

Step 2 — Install and Start Respondus LE
Use Windows' My Computer or Explorer to locate the RespondusLE.exe file downloaded in Step 1. Double-click the file to start the Respondus LE installation program. Several screens will guide you through the installation program. Once Respondus LE is installed, start the program by double-clicking the Respondus LE icon that is now located on the Windows desktop. Or follow these steps to start the software.

Click [Start] from the Windows desktop
Click [Programs]
Click [Respondus]
Click [Respondus LE]

The first time you start Respondus LE (and each time thereafter until the program is registered), you will be presented with a screen that provides the "Product ID#." The Product ID# is used in Step 3 to obtain the password required to activate the software.

Step 3 — Register Your Copy of Respondus LE
Go to www.respondus.com and click on "Registration." Here you are asked to enter information about yourself, including the Product ID# (see Step 2) and a valid e-mail address. (We do not sell e-mail addresses or customer information to third parties. We will use the information provided in this form only to provide better service to our users.) Once the registration information is submitted, the password is immediately sent to the e-mail address you provided.

Step 4 — Enter the Activation Password
Once you receive the password by e-mail, it must be entered into the Respondus LE program. If you haven't done so already, start Respondus LE (see Step 2). Enter your password when prompted (you may want to "copy and paste" the password from the e-mail message in order to prevent typing mistakes). Click [OK] to continue. The Respondus LE software is now activated. You will not need to repeat Steps 1-4 in the future, except when upgrading to the latest version of the software.
