A friend of mine emailed to ask if it is possible to install an educational software package onto an external hard drive. I don't know so I thought I would ask here.
Her daughter has learning difficulties and the software would help her education but the package is a bit on the big side for installing on her ageing laptop. She wanted to know if it is possible to install it on the external hard drive and then run it from there on an 'as needed' basis to save it filling up the drive on the laptop. She still needs to use the laptop for her work so need space on it work effectively.
If it is possible, are there any problems or setting up to take into account?
Thank you.
