Default Copying files from computer to computer

I have a program I use for word, its a PDF decoder, now, I have the full licenced version on my laptop, but its an older version, the creators want me to pay for an upgrade to the later version, but this version works just fine for me, but, I want it on a different computer.

I have copied the files completely but it doesn't work. Is there some way I can get the complete program off and on to my other computer?

If you have the install file (.exe) then simply copy that to the 2nd computer, install it, and put in a license code if you have/need one.

If you don't have a .exe, I don't know of a way to manually install it from just the system files.

You could try looking in the registry on your old computer and export any settings relating to Nitro Pro 8, then importing them on the new computer. Open regedit.exe then press F3 to open the search box, then search for Nitro, or just look in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software" or "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software" for a folder called Nitro (or similar) and export that folder to a .reg file and import on the new computer.
