[ct-user] Problem replacing corrupted CT.EXE file in existing CT 9.89

HELP! I'm trying to replace my corrupted CT.EXE file before the CW test begins today (planning well ahead, as always!) 

QUESTION: After downloading and unzipping ct992.exe on my internet-equipped laptop, (how) can I now transfer the unzipped file(s) from the laptop to my CT computer? 
Been using CT forever, running it on a dedicated computer running DOS, but that one is NOT modem-equipped so I can't download directly into the existing CT file. 

In the past I've updated CT data files without problem by downloading via the laptop to a floppy disk for transfer to the CT computer. But now, trying to save the .EXE file to floppy for transfer, I get either "cannot copy C: - copy protected" or "password required." 

What can I do?

Thanks much!
