I downloaded Coupon Printer from coupons.com. This program allows you to print coupons. In my Add/Remove Programs window, I can see the Program in there. It is not on my desktop though. I also tried this: Start- All Programs-Coupon Printer- and tried dragging it to my desktop. It does not work. All I am trying to do is put this Coupon Printer program onto my flash drive. Correct Answer gets 5 points! Thanks

  1. Why are you trying to install it to your flash drive?  You can not just install a program to a flash drive and have it work on any computer.  Does the program start from the start menu?  A little more information would be helpful.

    It must be a terrible program though.  The top result on Google for "Coupon Printer" is a guide to uninstall the program.


  2. I'll give you the steps.

    1.  First locate the program FOLDER on your hard drive (not the shortcut)

    2.  To locate the program folder path go to START > Search > select All Files and Folders > type in the name of the program.  

    In the list that it gives you find the one with that name that is the largest or says APPLICATION in the path.

    Note the location of the folder.

    3. Now go to RIGHT click START > left click EXPLORE >

    In the Windows Explore window that opens > in the LEFT panel scroll down to your program FOLDER

    4.  Click the folder once to "select " it (highlights blue) >

    RIGHT click/hold down mouse button/ drag the Folder to your Flash Drive below (whichis probably E: or F: depending on how many drives you have active).

    Hover over the Flash drive until it is highlighted blue >

    5. Let go mouse button > select COPY HERE

    Windows will copy it to the Flash Drive, if you "hovered" correctly.

    6.  When the copy proceedure is completed, you can check to see if the files are now on the Flash Drive by clicking it.

    You will see in the RIGHT pane, all the files on the Flash Drive.

    Important Note:  When you clear the files from the flash drive at a later time, do not delete the important files that must remain on the Flash Drive for it to operating (The Flash drive Operating Files).

    ^j^  

  3. When you install the program, just install it to the flash drive instead of the C: drive.
