Yes, I actually have a copy of my DX4WIN folder on an USB thumb drive. I can plug it into a laptop and have a record of all my QSO's with me when I travel. I just move a copy the latest k7acz.dxl file to the thumb drive to keep it up to date.

Therefore, when moving to a different PC or HD, all you need to do is, copy the entire DX4W805 folder to the new location, recreate your desktop shortcuts, and run.

My log file and the license key. Or is there another way of doing this that is more complete? I've heard "talk" of making sure some programs go on a Win 10 computer in certain directories to run correctly?
