How do I download Forge of Freedom to my other pc?

Post by emike »

I am getting a little irritated with all of this security crap - which essentially does nothing to slow the true bad guys but keeps loyal, paid in full customers like me from getting what I paid for. I downloaded FoF to my laptop but find it runs a little clunky. I would like to also download it to my desktop but I can find no way of downloading the program without paying for it again. Does anyone out there know how I can do this? I would be very appreciative. I own twelve of the Matrix games but if this does not get any better this will likely be my last. I wish I had thought of these kind of irritants when I was in their booth at GenCon Indy!

Hey emike

Can you not simply burn the program that you downloaded onto your laptop onto a disk (a DVD disk since it is too big for your typical 700mg blank) and then load it onto your desktop that way? I did and had no problem

1. Burn the installation file you downloaded to a CD or DVD
2. Put it on a Flash stick and move it to the other PC
3. Use a LAN, W-Lan connection between the computer to move it

4. You can always go to www.findmyorder.com and redownload it too (this is actually stated in the store's FAQ/Support)

I fail to understand what this has to do with "security crap" ? There is nothing that prevents you moving the installation file.

Did you try going to "find my order" using your other PC and just downloading again on that? That's what I did. Use the same serial number. Download as many times as you wish until it expires. It's your order.

I'm not buying a flash drive, I can't source an 800mb CD and my DVD burner is on my 2nd system. Hence I needed it there.
