After your account is created and you validate it through email, go back to the download page.

Download the installation file. Also write down or copy the license key, which we will need later.
Start the installation by double clicking the file you downloaded.
Click Install Now.
Wait for it to install.
Start Rhino.
On the Welcome to Rhino screen, enter the email that you used to create an account. Check the box 'I have read and agree to...'.
Don't click Continue. Instead click Options.
Under Options click 'Enter License Key'.
Paste or type in the evaluation key that you received earlier. Then click Continue.
Wait for it to discover your license.
On the Ready to Assign window, click 'Lock to this computer' (since this is a trial). If you are instead installing a license you purchased, click 'Float license between computers'.
On the Validate Your Rhino 7 License window, click 'Skip Registration' unless you want to fill everything out.
On the Ready to Validate window, click Continue.
Wait for it to retrieve the validation code.
License is validated successfully.
