If you have a program installed on a flash drive can you run it without installing on another computer?

I suppose by flash drive you are referring to a USB stick. My answer is "yes and no". It depends on the program so to speak. You would probably have a hard time running a complete office install from a stick. I hesitate to discount it completely, because I have never tried. A single executable file can easily be stored on a stick and executed from the stick. You can even have a program auto-execute when you insert the stick into your computer. I believe there have been security issues in this regard on certain operating systems, and you will probably have to enable this feature in your operating system.

How it is done is by
copy the program by clicking on "copy " on the left top corner of the window explorer
then click on "my computer" icon
then chose the flash drive letter what ever that is and click on it and click on "edit" and chose "paste".
