# Step 2. Install Product License

At the **License** step of the initial setup wizard, install the product license.

To install the license, in the **File location** field, specify the path to the license key:

1. Select the **Browse** option with the [Tab] key and press [Enter].
2. In the **Choose license file location** window, select the necessary directory and press [Enter].
3. Repeat step 'b' until the path to the directory in which the license key resides appears in the **Current directory** field.
4. In the directory where the license key resides, select the license key file and press [Enter].

::: tip

Consider the following:

- If you want to install the license later, to finish working with the initial setup wizard, switch to the **Finish** button with the [Tab] key and press [Enter].
- You can view information about the installed license (expiration date, status of the license, current functionality mode of the product and so on) [in the Veeam Agent control panel](license_manage_view.md) or [using the Veeam Agent command line interface](license_manage_cmd_view.md).
