Program copy
message from Cael on 4 Jun 2004
Good evening, Is there any posibility to copy a program from one computer to another computer? I lost the installation CD but still I use the program, so I would like to copy it to my new computer. Please help me, I am waiting for your advice. Regards, Cael

Hi Cael,

I'm sorry but you just cannot copy a program to another computer and
expect it to function. During install, a program writes many entries
to the registry, and without these entries it cannot function.

Try to get in touch with the company that sold you the CD and ask
about a replacement.

Good luck

Hi Cael

It's not really possible as the installation files are spread over various
folders throughout your system.
