RootsMagic 4 includes a nifty new utility called RootsMagic To Go. It makes it easy to take the RootsMagic program and your RootsMagic data with you on a USB flash drive (a.k.a. thumbdrive or jump drive). It simplifies installing RootsMagic 4 to the flash drive so that it can be run from there. Thanks to this little beauty, you can run RootsMagic on a PC that doesn’t already have it installed! This is perfect for work in distant libraries or other research venues with public computers. It also enables copying your RootsMagic 4 data to the flash drive before you leave and back to your computer when you return.
In this video I show you step-by-step, how this utility works.

Thanks Dennis!
At this point adding multimedia appears to be broken when running RootsMagic 4 Preview from the flash drive. It’s expected that the preview version will have anomalies. I’ll check it again in the next build.
