Steps to Install Respondus

1. On your Windows machine, in the "Type here to search" box at the lower left corner, type in "company portal".

2. When "Company Portal App" pops up, click on it.

3. Once the Company Portal opens, click on "Apps" on the left, then scroll down on the right to locate Respondus logo and click on it.

4. Click on the "Install" button to start installation. Make sure you save the license information under Description as you might need it later.

5. When installation completes, the license key should have already been embedded for you. However, if you are still prompted to enter the license information, please enter the license information you obtained from step 4.

6. The installation password will be valid for only one year, and expired at the end of each July. 

When you are prompted for the new license key, repeat steps 1,2 and 3 to access the new license information.
