Installing on Linux

Post by omng945 » Wed May 09, 2018 3:48 pm

I currently have the trial version installed, came that way. I upgraded to Pro, downloaded on a flash drive but cannot get this thing to install. I’m using Linux 32 bit, i686. I click on properties and it will not let me change the permissions. Says cannot set permissions on symlinks. I need help!

I figured it out, I had to put the files in a specific folder (Downloads) on the computer.
