    I downloaded a program from the internet a long time ago but don't have the exe file anymore. How can I put the program onto another computer? The website is dead. I found a file within the folder from Program Files that tells the computer what to remove during uninstallation. From the attached file, can I copy those DLLs and be able to install onto another computer?

    Hi, If the program working on your system but you have lost the original install file then you will not be able to transfer it to another computer as it most probably has ent\ries in your registry that are essential to run it. It would only be possible to do it if it did not write to the registry. If it has an uninstall program with it then I would say it did write to the registry. I suggest if you really want to do it then try it an keep your fingers crossed but don't hiold your breath.LOL
