Shareware is not a kind of software, it’s a way of marketing software. The user is permitted to try the software on their own computer system (generally for a limited period of time) without any cost or obligation. Payment is required if the user has found the software to be useful or if the user wishes to continue using the software beyond the evaluation (trial) period.

Payment of the registration fee to the author will bring the user a license to continue using the software. Most authors will include other materials in return for the registration fee- like printed manuals, technical support, bonus or additional software, or upgrades.
