  3. Paste the files in C:\Windows\System32:


64-bit Windows Systems:

  2. Copy the four files “TurboActivate.dat”, “TurboActivate.dll”, “TurboActivate.x64.dll” and “TurboActivate.exe” located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\SigmaXL\V8\SXL_Stats:



    Note for users with 64-bit Office and 64-bit Windows

    These files will be located in C:\Program Files\SigmaXL\V8\SXL_Stats
