Installing PSE3 to external h.d.

[mwfanelli]

I'm thinking of installing PSE3 to my external h.d. and using on both my pc and laptop. Do I also need to install it on the computers? Or can I open/use the software if it's just on the h.d.?

Thanks.

Well, yes and no. You can install it and run it on an external drive but it will still work only with the computer you used to create it. Windows uses a registry system to track software and do other housekeeping, those entries won't exist on other machines.

For example, I have a version of Firefox that installs on a USB key and runs on any Windows computer. However, the code was specifically rewritten to work that way. Normal Firefox does not.
