New 29 Dec 2019 #1 Can I transfer programs from one computer to another? Got a new laptop for Christmas. Well wife did, I get to set it up for her. There are programs on her old laptop that I would like to transfer to the new one. Specifically Familytree Maker 2008 and 2009. I don't have the original discs any more. It seems like the latest FTM is cloud based and shares/makes available too much of her hard research work. New 29 Dec 2019 #2 There is no simple way of doing this as it may have dlls and regitry entires. Laplink have software that may do it. You could try just copying the folder it may just work if it keeps all its files in one place New 29 Dec 2019 #3 If you're moving from Win 7 to Win 10, Laplink's PCMover appears to be free:Laplink(R) - Trusted WorldwideI think their trial used to allow 2 programs- vague memory and may not be so any more.This is another option:Professional PC transfer/migration software: EaseUS Todo PCTrans Professional- you'd need to investigate if there's an option to move a couple of programs with the trial.Not worth paying the license cost perhaps.These aim to reproduce everything related to the program including registry entries, start menu etc etc.But create a disk image with e.g. Macrium Reflect (free) to external storage (as tenforums members so often recommend people do routinely) before doing this. New 29 Dec 2019 #4 The problem/s you'll encounter are that Windows-based programs need installing from disc or downloads so as to put the necessary files on the drive, create the Start menu icons, install support files in the Windows folder and write entries in the Registry so Windows knows how to run the programs. It sometimes is possible to have both computers at hand and start copying one to the other and find and correct the error messages that will come up when something is missed, quite time-consuming. For the genealogy program might look at Legacy, I was disappointed when PAF was discontinued.Legacy News: The new Legacy Family Tree 9 is here!
