I don't get all the comments about the video quality. I don't care about that, this helped me out so much. Thanks a bunch mate!

I need a simple, easy and Cheap way (no special devices, cables, software, etc.) to move my software from an ancient Win 7 to a new Win 10 PC. That is exactly what I found in your video. I did not need a Hollywood-quality video production. I watched this twice and your tutorial is all I need. Thanks for sharing.

That was the most sloppily done but simple & effective videos I've seen yet. Thank you! Very well done! By sloppy I simply meant the camera movement but I know it couldn't be helped. Your going slow was actually an asset for my 70 year old brain.

This would work with simple programs, but I'm afraid it will not work with more complex programs like Autocad that requires you to reinstall and use the serial number.

Hexplained every single step... he even told you how to click the mouse lol

THANK YOU!!! I have been searching for simple, made for non-computer geek instructions on how to do this. I bought a new computer and was dreading moving programs and files. THANK YOU!!!!

This is how I wanted to learn step by step. Thanks Man

You just saved me time, money and a headache! Thank YOU!!

Thanks, just about to upgrade PC and worried about some programs i'll lose, this worked on a test laptop so way less stressed than before.

Man honestly thank you so much so many people always say that is super Duper easy to do things like this but it isn’t when it comes to applications that were installed with a CD

A little difficult to follow but excellent info. Thank you. (LIFE BEGINS AT 83.)

I can't believe this was made in 2017. Super ghetto, but super helpful. Thanks!

Brilliant - asked for admin autho a few times when dropping to new laptop but double clicked and all ok Thanks a lot

Thanks for taking the time to do this video. Very helpful!

thank you for sharing your idea or your knoledge.. your not selfish.. thank you so much for teaching..

Thank you for your time, the information is fantastic. like some ppl have already said, the bouncing on the video itself was a bit much, but hey, the information was great, helped me tons, keep up the good work !

Thankyou! This helped me out greatly!

You are the GOAT my dude, keep it up

You're a hero. I want you to know that.

WORKED PERFECTLY!!!! Horrible video production. But this is the best info video that helped me. I wanted to transfer "Visual Show Automation" software from a 10 year old computer to a new computer. I was able to follow step by step and everything worked perfectly. THANK YOU.

Thanks very much. Was driving me mad, cos I kept copying a shortcut and not the program. Worked for me.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I appreciate this valued information . Thanks

Did it work? What happened to your older computer, so you now have 2 copies of the program with 2 different computers? I'm wondering if there's licensing issues, you know how greedy these companies are

This was sooo helpful, even though the blurry side of this video was hard, Great job!!

You teach really well. However its clear for me. Thank you very much!

This may work for non-licensed programs but anything with a registration key is not going to be this easy. There may be registry entries or files in other directories that are required.

This video is much like for copying DOS program files, where no Registry held program IQ. Programs such as MS Office, Adobe products, etc, will not copy as demonstrated-only simple Windows-based programs that do not use the Registry to log the product entries.

Don't know about you but.... I was really relieved each time he put the camera down... I was getting seasick and vertigo both atr the same time! Hahahaha! I also don't believe this method will work for every program... Some programs put entries in the registry to prevent this type of copying...

Did it work

Hey, for educational purposes, does that work for piracy? Let's say I installed a pirated version of Photoshop, and it came with some viruses, after a cleanup, the viruses are gone and photoshop is still on and working. If every time I now reinstalled Photoshop I used this process so I can install it without the viruses, would that work just fine?

Liked and subscribed.

did you remove the flash drive before running the program? if not, have you tried running it without the flash drive ?

Fantastic sir,this has helped me loads,godbless

Thank you thank u thankyou so mucccchhhh!!!!

Why didn't you copy the entire folder to the flashdrive? would it be the same or you have to do selecting all files as you showed?

Better when watched on a laptop

I am skeptical. Simply copying program files from one computer to another does not actually install them on the new computer. The program needs to get installed into the Windows registry of the new computer and simply copying files does not do this. Maybe it worked in this situation because you are transferring between two computers running identical Operating Systems, or maybe it worked because you previously had that software installed on the second laptop and it was already in the Windows registry on the second laptop. I don't recall if you mentioned what OS was running on both laptops.

This won’t work on expensive programs like QuickBooks which defend against piracy. Installations of such programs write to the Registry and WINDOWS folder. They even write hidden files.

THANK YOU it work!

TLDR; copy program folder and paste it in same location on new computer. Then launch the exe application doc. Wondering if some programs won't allow this. Also recommend watching on 1.5 speed minimum 😂

So, take the shortcut on the desktop and pin to the taskbar, then use the shortcut on the desktop to open and run the program, right?

thank you so much

So I loved your video but it will not work for me. I am trying to transfer Microsoft Office. It looks like I have to do one program at a time. So I right click on Word and click on Open File Location. When I do that a folder pops up that says Microsoft Office Tools and under that is Excel, Word, Powerpoint and One Note. When I right click on any of the programs and click on Open File Location as you recommend nothing happens. So what else can I do?????

Thank You for this. I tried this with an older version of windows movie maker and it worked, but microsoft has an updated version on my new pc so it keeps defaulting to that. I HATE their new version, it is awful and unnecessarily complicated.

Love your teaching. Very helpful. Thanks so much !

does it save all the data you had in the older computer that was of that program ?

Thanks sir.. I hope, this will work for me

This might work for some programs but not others. It doesn't account for necessary dll files or registry entries. For me it worked for Handbrake video editor but not my HR Block tax software.

Thanks so much

Does this mean that to get any software to work on a new computer, you just have to copy the original folder to a portable media then copy it back to the new machine? How does this effect programs that need registry and a keycode to work? I am upgrading a laptop soon and I don't want to waste time with experimenting. Thanks

Can you help me out? I tried transferring Photoshop, I did all the steps when I created the shortcut it was the file folder not the "icon" to click to open the program? I don't have the software. Thank you.

When open more, there is share option. Can I use this option to make a copy of the program?

thanks a lot

Does this take care of the serial number and access code or will you need them also. I lost all me information and cant get it.
