This is how I would do it …
Go to the Legacy website and download the installation file to each computer, then run it to install. If this isn’t practical, download the file to one computer, copy the install file to a CD or flash drive, then go to each computer and install it from the downloaded file. I’m not certain what you mean by having the information identical on each computer. Are you referring to the program or to genealogical data? If the data, copy the same data file to each of the installed Legacy programs by placing it in the Data folder inside the Legacy folder and then open Legacy, go to file>open family file, highlight your data file and click open. If data is yet to be entered, if it were me, I’d enter the data on the master computer, then copy the data file to the other computers on a regular basis to maintain consistency. Maintain the same file name and just add a new date to the end of the data file name each time you update the secondary computers so you know what file is always in use and can see they are consistent among all the computers. I ‘think’ Legacy v7.5 defaults to the root of C: so you would look for the program on the root of the local hard drive, unless you elect to install it under C: program files (x86) If you have more questions, just ask. There are lots of knowledgeable people here willing to offer suggestions.

I need the information entered to be identical on each of them. Does anyone know how to have Legacy on more than one computer?
