Well my mom uses quicken 2005, because it was installed on her computer. She wants me to switch it over to the other computer, but sadly we don't have the disks. I cant find a quicken.exe setup anywhere on her computer.. Anyone know what to do.. I dont want to torrent this ether, she might do an update or something :(

Well, Nil to do with PSP but
Go to my computer
C:
--Program Files
and look for quicken's folder It should have an .exe for quicken inside
copy the entire folder
to a flash drive, CD, or other memory device.

Then put that folder in the Program Files directory of the other computer.

Well none of those files will laod the installer, but what you are trying to do is load up just the program. Once you find the exe file that loads the program, just simply make a shortcut for it so you can start it up, without having to roam inside that folder.

no I mean I cant load the program at all, I have all the files on the computer, but nothing to install, or load it with.

Then you are out of luck. Most of the times this would work, but if the program needs to be in the registry and also Windows folders to run, then it will be sort of hard to do this without the installation disk. Tell mom she is gonna have to get a new version of Quicken--its not too expensive--I think?

So you can't even load the game on the computer anymore? You don't have the cd either I guess, look for the torrent download or something.

You shouldn't need to use an installer.
If you copy all the files and run the .exe from the drive you shouldn't have any problems.
I've done this with Word, PJ64, and VBA.
