so if i have a program on one computer and dont have the installation disk/no more installs..
is it possible to copy everything from the program to a drive, then put it onto another computer?

No, im pretty sure files are placed in a lot more places than just the program files directory when the program is installed. But go for it

It depends. What is the program? Does it run through anything else?

it probably won't work.
you need to be able to install the program on the other computer, so if you have the orignal file... not the installed program file, like the original file where when you open it up, it is an installer... then it would work.
