Three Methods to Move Data/Apps to Your New PC

When it comes to getting a computer, you'd like to move as much of the data from your old one to your new device as you can. There are three ways you can accomplish this, from transferring data via a network connection, image transfer to app migration between local disks.

PC to PC

PC to PC is able to transfer applications, data, accounts, and settings between two network-connected PCs.

  • Connect your PC to another PC on the same LAN.
  • Transfer applications, files and accounts.
 

Image Transfer

Image Transfer prepares an image file, then transfers the image to the target PC without using the network. It also works as a backup.

  • Select "Image Transfer" to transfer data via image files.
  • Set up an image storage location and create the image file.
  • Restore images to the new computer.
 

App Migration

App Migration only transfers applications from one to another partition on an internal hard disk, and free up space to settle down low disk space issue.

  • Select "App Migration".
  • Select applications.
  • Start the transfer process.
 

Move Windows OS and Apps to A New PC

If you do not have a pre-installed system on your new computer, you can use EaseUS Todo Backup, a system transfer software to complete the system and apps migration. This software provides one-click transfer solution to move Windows OS and programs to a new machine without hardware driver and configuration problem.

  • Step 1: Create WinPE disk on old PC.
  • Step 2: Create system image on old PC.
  • Step 3: Boot from WinPE disk on new PC.
  • Step 4: Transfer system to new PC.
 

Learn more about how to transfer Windows system to a new computer.

To successfully migrate your system to your new computer, you need to pay attention to the following tips:
Creating a boot disk will format your USB drive and cause data loss. So, back up files on your device at first.
The system image is best created on an external disk to facilitate a quick connection to the target computer. But you can also make the bootable drive (do it first) and the system image (do it later) on one external hard drive as long as it's large enough.
You can press F2/F8/Del to enter BIOS to set boot from the WinPE disk.
