Legacy has to be installed on the computer it will not install on a USB
stick nor will it run from one. It needs to have system files in the
Windows system folders on the computer so it will need to be installed
on the computer's hard drive.
You can have your data and media in your Dropbox folder on the computer
you are using at the moment but you will have to make sure that Drop box
is fully synced with the cloud before turning off your computer. If you
do not the copy of Legacy in Dropbox on the web will not be up-to-date.
Also when you log in to the other computer you will have to wait until
the Dropbox on that computer is fully synced to ensure that the copy of
your file(s) on the new computer are up-to-date. Failure to wait can
cause conflicts with the versions of your files in Dropbox because using
Legacy updates the local copy before it is synced. Dropbox recognizes
that and flags the modified file(s) as conflicted.
It is better to use a regular folder on your hard drive in each computer
and backup your data to the Dropbox folder. You can then restore the
file from the latest Dropbox backup when you start the second computer.
Again though make sure you let Dropbox fully sync before restoring.

Am sure this is answered somewhere but have not been able to find answers:
1. Can Legacy run from USB stick or SDHD card? New computer has HD
card (126) & solid state 256 HD. Would like to be able to work on files
from both desk top & new laptop, storing file in Google cloud or
Dropbox. Would that work or is it necessary to back up to USB stick at
the end of every session?
2. Can I run version of Legacy on both desktop & laptop?
