1. Save a copy of the Legacy6Setup.exe file to the flash drive, if you wish

Download Full Setup option when you downloaded the Legacy setup file.

Another removable drive method . . .
I also have my files on a flash/zip/jump/whatever drive but do things
slightly different to what's already been mentioned.
My Legacy database has links to so many graphics -- all census pages,
registrations, certificates, newspaper clippings, etc. -- that
How much space do you need for your multimedia stuff? I use a 40 GB
USB drive for my Legacy data AND all my multimedia. These pocket

This (see below) is how I am doing it for years now except of entering
findings in a separate document while out doing
research. (although I do make copies of records with a lot of info in it)

None of this will be of any help if your house burns down or gets hit by a
tornado. No matter how many copies you have IN the house, you'll be out of
luck.
Buy an extra flash drive ... back up to that at least once a month ... and
get it out of the house. Take it to the office ... leave

A flash drive must have a life, at which time the battery would expire
and you would lose your data. I make multiple CD copies and store them in
different locations for secure backups.

It would be worth looking at the free program from Microsoft called SyncToy

more!) locations. I use it for Legacy on 3 machines here including a Laptop.
