To use your Deep Fritz 12 you need an activation key and an Internet connection.
Now Deep Fritz 12 is available for direct download, which means you can get the program very quickly, even if you live in a remote location and have long postal delivery times. It also allows you to try out the program before you actually purchase it. All of this is an interesting alternative to purchasing the DVD version.
The Deep Fritz 12 program and chess engine are exactly the same as the one you get on the DVD. Only the opening book and the database of games have been reduced in size, in order to keep download times reasonable. Details are given below.
You download Fritz 12 and start using it without an activation key. Some functions will be restricted, but you can get a feel for the operation of the program. An activation key will immediately restore all functions of the program and the chess engine.
Currently you can pay for an activation key for the Deep Fritz 12 download using credit card or PayPal.
