I uninstalled Legacy program from my "C" drive and just use left over
files ie: data, backup on my "C" as a secondary backup to my new "M"
drive. I SUCCESSFULLY installed Legacy 7 on my new external hard drive
and then copied my files to the new drive. I'll get a flash drive and
make backups to that as well.
