The setup package generally installs about 5 files. Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 10 and Windows 7 (SP1). While about 86% of users of Network Secured DNS come from the United States, it is also popular in Canada and Saudi Arabia.
