FAQ

Q:  My ForScore license is locked to my old computer.   How do I transfer it to my new computer?

1.  Download and install ForScore on the new computer.  It will run as a demo for up to 45 days.

2.  Copy the contents of the DATA folder from your old computer to your new computer.  By default ON AN XP COMPUTER, its path is C:\Program Files\Forscore\DATA
On a WINDOWS 7 COMPUTER or a VISTA COMPUTER, its path is C:\ForScoreFiles\DATA
You may want to use a floppy disk to copy the files, or a USB thumb drive, or burn them onto a CD.
