Moving Software What's The Best Software For Moving Everything From An Old Computer To A New One?

What's the best software for moving everything from an old computer to a new one? - moving software

I was thinking of getting a new PC, but do not want to move the pain programs and data on the new PC in the face. Is there an easy way to do this with software? Thank you.

Two possibilities:

"Cloning" software such as Norton Ghost or Drive Image. It is a perfect copy of the original disk in the new entity. In this way, you get everything in the old moved into the new unit. This includes file corruption, fragmentation, units of the old computers are not required in the new errors, etc., so you can determine if it really how you want. (If your current PC is working well, then it may be a good choice. If you can copy problems and bugs in the new PC will be ...)

The other is to move the old hard drive in new PC as a second drive and simply drag and drop what you want in the new PC. This works best for data but not always for the programs. You must install all programs work correctly in the new PC in order to avoid errors, missing files, etc., but you get ahead of a clean install Windows and all programs. It takes longer but a PC more stable when you're done. (Or is it to spend time defining the right to beginning, or if more time fixing later)

Hey Dude,

95% of the time, you can install the old hard drive on new computer, turn it to copy and paste it into your PC. You can click on what you are going to copy and remove, does not need something.

If you can, this is the easiest is copy what you have in your network.
