Can I transfer music downloads from Walmart.com to another computer?

Yes, you may back up your music to 2 additional computers. To back up music, you will need to make copies of both the song files and license files and transfer these to the new computer.

1. Copy and transfer song files:
Copy song file(s) and transfer (via email, on CD or through a shared network) to a designated music folder on another computer
2. Back up license files:
Go to the Tools menu on Windows Media Player and click on License Management.
Choose the location to store the license backup files.
Click the "Back Up Now" button to save all your license files to this location.
3. View license files:
License files are hidden by default until you change your folder viewing options. You must show hidden license files in order to transfer them to another computer.
Open the file where you placed your license backup files.
Go to the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
Select the View tab and click "Show hidden files and folders."
Click "OK."
4. Transfer licenses to a different computer:
Copy your license backup files. (Look for filenames drmv1key.bak, drmv1lic.bak, drmv2key.bak, drmv2lic.bak.)
Transfer all license files (via email, on CD or through a shared network) to a designated music folder on the new computer.
5. Restore licenses:
You must restore the licenses on the new computer before you can play the songs.
Go to the Tools menu on Windows Media Player and click on License Management.
Point to the location where you saved the license files on the new computer.
Click "Restore Now" to allow Windows Media Player to access the licenses on the new computer.
Open the song to play it.
