Hi Mo and all.

I quite agree; I used Wendows 7 Easy Transfer and it did some very strange 
things with lots of directory and file duplication. Much easier to use an 
external drive, and no more a waste of time.

Cheers,

Mike

Hello Barry.

To be honest, I never trust software to do the work for me. Its often easier 
just to transfer your files and settings manually, that's why we tend to 
provide 2 hours free tech support on arrival so we can do all the work for 
you. All you need is an external hard disk drive. If you'd still like to go 
the automated route, you could try the software at the following link. I do 
not know how accessible it is though...

Hi all

I'd appreciate it if anyone would tell me a free transfer wizard I can use
to transfer files, settings and emails from one pc to another, both running
Windows 10.

Ideally, I'd prefer one that uses an external drive as I cannot easily run
both machines at once.

Cheers
