Install software from CD-ROM on a computer without a drive

Solved

Hello

I'm getting back to you regarding my new laptop, which doesn't have a CD/DVD-ROM drive.
I haven't been able to buy an external drive yet, but in the meantime, I can't use my Paint Shop Pro, which installs via the CD-ROM...

I have USB drives and my old laptop with a CD-ROM drive... Is there a way to put the content of the CD-ROM (Paint Shop Pro 7, it's an old software) onto the USB drive to install it on my PC? Or do we have access to an online download if we purchased the software? (It's been years, so I don't have a receipt or anything)

Thank you

    Hello,
    You can try downloading it here:
    http://www.oldversion.fr/windows/paint-shop-pro-7-0
    However, you need to have a license to activate the software, and copying it to a USB stick is not possible; the copy is illegal as this software is protected by intellectual property rights.

    Please respond, thank you...

      Thank you, I will try both of your methods, I still have the box and everything, so the code should be there.

      @sardine79You can install it directly from the link, it's simpler, but it's up to you to decide...

      Otherwise, the DVD drive costs around 25 euros.
      See you!
