OK don't laugh, I am a 74 year old with a reasonable grip on this electronic age,,,,,,, I think!
Now my brand new Windows 8 (3 weeks old), has a enormous amount of Mah-jong games on it, and my wife would like to have all that on her Windows 7 laptop.

SO::

A. We are both online, can I transfer the Mah-jong direct?................How?

B. Can somebody tell me in Kindergarten language, how to download it onto a memory sick and install it direct from the memory stick.

Thanks Mate for the super quick reply.
I just told the boss, can't do that unless you make that giant leap for mankind and go to windows 8.

She said YUK, so problem solved.
Cheers...Simmo,.

What might work, if you want to experiment, is using PC Mover from LapLink. It is able to migrate apps from one PC to another.

You would have to buy it to try it out, and it might not work, but it's the only app left (as far as I know) that is able to migrate apps from one PC to another. There used to be a better one, AlohaBob PC Relocator, but MS bought them out -- and then killed the product.

    That's basically it.
I always use "app" and "program" interchangeably. I better get with the program (as they used to say in 1976)

um if you actually had purchased the game on a cdrom or dvd you could probably install it on whatever computer you wanted too.
