If you have one PC running one OS (which is usually the case), you need one license of Acronis Disk Director Home.
If you have a multi-boot machine with more than one OS, you will need one license of Acronis Disk Director Home for each of the operating systems where you are going to use the product.
Example: You have a dual-boot machine with Windows XP and Windows 7. You need one license of Acronis Disk Director Home to use with Windows XP and another, separate license to use the product with Windows 7.
If you create Acronis Bootable Media, you can only use it on one machine. If you are going to use it on more than one machine, you will need a separate license for each computer.
