The installer runs as a privileged user, which means that the license will be placed in HKLM for all users, regardless of which user initiated the installation. When an installation is performed via the GUI, KEYDATA (the alphanumeric string that is the license key, as detailed below) can be pasted from the Windows clipboard into the installer:

The license key will be placed in HKLM (and encrypted) when installation is complete:

Note that a KEYFILE (XCVault file) cannot be used for a GUI-based installation.
Paste the KEYDATA (alphanumerical license key string) into the Add New License Key/Activation Code dialog box to apply keys post installation via the GUI. This dialog box is available via the File>Preferences>Registration:
