Can I transfer an installed software on a CD/USB

[ZicZoom]

Ok, the issue here is that I bought this laptop with a full version of Photoshop installed but now when I want to do a format of my drive everything will go but I would like to somehow keep that full version of Photoshop which came installed in my computer when I bought it.

They did not give me any CD or serial key for it. It just came installed into the laptop as a special offer. Is there any way I can copy the files of the software or something on a CD/USB so that I can reinstall it or put it back in after i format my drive or not really.

I run Windows 7
Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

If it came pre-installed and from one of the big OEM companies, it should be part of the software that gets installed from the recovery partition, when you do a factory restore.
