Yea, there's some strange clauses in the eula. For example, the eula stipulates that your operating system must be validly licensed.

> on your computer running a validly licensed copy of the operating system

I don't see how or why this is important at all. In other words, pirated copy of windows is disallowed from using this software.

Not that i have any issues with the eula in general. I think this is good enough to be a paid piece of software. It's just weird to see a clause about the operating system itself.

That was a common clause that I encountered while researching the licenses for software with similar distribution models to the one I was targeting.

As far as I can tell, stipulating that end users must be running a validly licensed OS helps protect the licensor (me) in situations where a cracked OS with malware corrupts my software or compromises the whole system.
