Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Per-seat license
A per-seat license (Option D) is the best choice because it allows the application to be installed on multiple computers while tracking individual users and their settings. Each user has a unique license, ensuring personal settings are preserved. Open source (Option A) may not provide per-user settings management. Freeware (Option B) is typically free but often lacks multi-user support and per-user configuration. A site license (Option C) covers all users at a site but usually does not track individual settings.
