I would like to save a program onto a disk, so that I do not lose it when I reformat. I dont want to do anything else but save it onto a disk. Not put it into a file folder, just save it. I have paid for the program.. also.

All you need to do is send the installer file for the program to the CD by right-clicking the file, choosing "Send To..." from the menu and selecting the "CDR/RW Drive" option. This will temporarily save the file to another location.
You will then see a balloon in the System Tray (lower right corner). Once you have put a blank CDR into your burner drive, click that balloon. This will open a new window, and on the left side you will see a link that says "Burn these files to CD." Clicking this will start the wizard, which is as simple as clicking Next a few times.

You must have the original disks for the program. With few exceptions You can not extract an installed application out of your comptuer. You need the original installation disks or the original installation program to get it on your new configuration.
You can save your DATA (the stuff you created while you used the program) but you cannot extract the installed application itself, most programs put themselves in so many parts of your computer it would be like trying to take pee out of a swimming pool.

First, you would be able to desire to have a CD-R burner on your laptop. not all CD drives are able to burn CDs. frequently in case you examine the the front of the CDpersistent (by employing the tray the place you insert the CD) there'll be a emblem that identifies no count if it fairly is a CD-ROM (Reads CDs purely, would not burn), a CD-R (burns familiar CD-Rs) or a CD-RW (burns familiar CD-Rs, yet additionally reusable CD-RW). DVDs additionally are available in ROM, R and RW formats. in case you have a CD-R or CD-RW, then you are able to burn a CD-R. Open a My laptop window so as which you will discover the CDpersistent. Open a 2nd window the place you will discover the report(s) you want to burn directly to the CD. Drag the report(s) into the window that exhibits the CDpersistent. once you have all of them, pass to the report menu and decide "Write to CD". this is going to burn the data directly to the CD. bear in concepts the CD-Rs are one time use purely. as quickly as you do the "burn", you are able to not longer exchange the content fabric of that CD. you are able to not upload greater to it or delete something off it. So be sure you have the data you want interior the window earlier you do the "burn".

What program? Generally it won't work, as the program creates "Registry" entries. (See 'Source' box for Registry definition.)
So when copying the program back to a new formatted computer, the software won't work.
If you drop me a line at daniel.neville@gmail.com saying which software it is, I may be able to help further.
