i just have another computer and i would love to play ragnarok on the new machine, but i would hate to re-download and updating the game all over again (i deleted the installer file after finished installing to save space). 

 

so my question is: cani just copy and paste the entire ragnarok folder to a new machine?

is this possible, possible but hard or completely impossible?

 

if this is possible, what other parts from the game that i would probably missing? registry keys? some hidden folder in the C:/ drive? (that's where i installed windows) 

 

please reply, and i would love to read the GM or moderator (or experts) input on this. thanks for reading and please help!

Yes, it is allowed.

 

My friends and I share each other's RO folder whenever someone encounters a problem.

 

Most of their clients also came from the one I downloaded. :)

Yes, it's possible. All you need to do is copy the client folder and manually add shortcuts to the appropriate programmes (.exe files) in the folder to the start menu/start screen. You can find instructions for doing the latter on the Web.
