Hello, I need to install my ID on a Joomla 5.3.3 installation.
I've tried following the steps in the help, but I don't have the option to paste and save to my installation.
I'd appreciate your help.

You cannot enter your Download ID in the free of charge Core version. You need to upgrade the software to the Professional version first.

Please follow the instructions in this video to upgrade to Akeeba Backup Professional: https://www.akeeba.com/videos/1212-akeeba-backup/1617-abtc03-upgrade-core-professional.html Afterwards, you can follow the documentation instructions to enter your Download ID.
