Freeware is a type of proprietary software license in which the creator retain the ownership but offer the source code for free for others to modify.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a proprietary software license,the software publisher makes use of end-user license agreement (EULA) to grant permission to the user for creating one or more copies of the software but the ownership of those copies remain with then software publisher/creator.

Thus the answer is (A) Freeware
