When you run in the demo mode, there are only 10 active plants of the 4100+ plants from the library, but the software is fully functional. This allows you to make sure it runs on your computer and has the features you need. Each time your run the trial software, you will have the option to purchase or remain in the trial mode.
Windows 10 users who have a third party ISO mounting application installed should download the ISO version. Be sure you know how to locate the downloaded file once the download is complete. It will usually appear in your Downloads folder.
When the download is complete, right-click on the V53EDU.iso file and, from the popup Window, select Mount. (You may see other options if third party software was installed, but there should be something like Mount virtual drive). Once the drive is mounted, you may be prompted to run the Setup or the drive folder will open and you can then run the Setup. If neither one of these happens, open the mounted drive and run the Setup.
Once the setup is complete, first run the program by right-clicking Horticopia Pro Edu icon on your desktop and selecting Run as Administrator. This only needs to be done the first time -- subsequently, just double-click on the icon.
