What Is The Easiest Way To Make Backup Cd’s Of My Computer Software?
I am getting a new computer soon, and since most of my software was downloaded and registered online (no disk) I am concerned about how to best go about transferring the programs from my old computer to my new one. For example I tried making a copy of my FL Studio Program, and it worked…sort of. When I installed the disc into another computer it functioned, but was missing some key features that are supposed to be there. Here’s what I did. I opened Nero, selected burn data cd, browsed program files til I found the one labeled FL STUDIO, and then I opened it into Nero. As I said before, the burn was successful, it just didn’t contain everything that was originally included in the software. I need advice because I don’t have much longer with my old computer, and I have ALOT of software that I need to backup onto cd. I just want to know that the copy will contain everything I need to install the entire program on my new pc….or else i’m just wasting CD-R’s!! Thanks for your help!!
