Deletion of files transferred using the Windows Easy Transfer feature.

I used the simple window transfer to transfer old files to new computer. I want to reverse this trend that I don't like some of what is transferred. How can I do this?

Windows Easy Transfer copied the files from the old computer to the new. There is no way to reverse the process. Just remove the Windows Easy Transfer files where to put. For more information, clickStart >all programs > Accessories >System Tools > Windows Easy Transfer reports .

If this does not help, please tell us exactly what are the files that you want to remove.

The Windows Easy Transfer of data application does not work if there are two windows of different language.

I bought a data transfer cable and I tried to make a transfer of data from the laptop with non - English Windows XP Profesional a laptop with Windows 7 Home via WINDOWS EASY TRANSFER viz English.

but I was surprised that I got a message "that a different language to the windows version has been so that data transfer can not live there. And above all, there was a message "that the data cable has not been detected."
Microsoft is working with so many language versions, then why this simple problem is not solve upward? It cannot be too big problem to compensate for a versatile application that would work on all versions of Windows.

No, it doesn't work of course between the various language versions, has never and will never be. Will not be fixed either, because Windows XP is in the extended now support (only security patches issued) and becomes entirely non supported in about a year. Save and move documents using a different method.

No Multithreading for work of file transfers using the WebDAV protocol?

I'm looking to recommend a CS5.5 to CS6 upgrade for my work, but I wonder if our server system will be able to use the multiple file upload and download feature new to CS6. If it is not available by WebDAV, then it is not much of a point on the side of Dreamweaver for us upgrade.
Thank you

Improvements to the file transfer will apply only to the FTP and FTPS. They do not apply to WebDAV.

There is a detailed explanation of the changes in the Blog of the Dreamweaver team at http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/06/ftp-improvement-in-dreamweaver-cs6.html.

Cannot complete the Windows easy transfer after upgrading Windows XP to Windows 7. Message says that I don't have enough memory.

Upgrade from Windows XP to W7 nothing but problems.

I recently bought and installed windows 7 Home Edition premium, because microsoft does not support the windows xp more. Now all of my terrible looking graphics and I am unable to do my 'easy transfer' of my settings in my computer. It is said that there is not enough memory. Why would the transfer to proceed with the transfer if there is not enough room to put them on the same computer with the new windows operating system 7? Besides, why don't the Windows Upgrade Advisor warn me that my system would not support it. There was some software incompatibility issues but nothing that serious. I would like to go back to windows xp or windows 7 starter edition would work? I have a 2 GB of ram with a 32-bit op system. I fell I just lost my money and even less hours spent working on it. I realize it's time to upgrade, but want even this computer works for children and the wife.

Advise Windows isn't the end of everything, being together. Common sense and human interaction and research is always the majority of computing in my humble opinion. If a program can still tell you the answer - and in fact always reason - is it a good thing? ;-)

From my experience, we should always do their own research - investigating on their own. Ask others who have more experience in everything that they might plan to do a few questions so they could avoid an error. Yet, at this stage, human beings are still the best source for experience.

Windows XP should work fine for that machine. In fact - it was designed essentially around it (the machine has been designed around Windows XP--came with it). I'm sorry you had a bad experience with Windows 7 and in trouble, but I assure you - with the right material, that Windows 7 is the next Windows XP. :-)

Windows easy transfer. I can't use transfer to move files to the new computer

I used windows easy transfer to back up my files to an external hard drive before doing a clean install of windows 7, XP.

I am unable to find any "windows easy transfer" files on the hard drive for transfer to the new computer.

ALL the files from my old computer are there and I am able to access it from the external hard drive.

Please tell me there is an easy way to transfer files and I don't have to do it manually.

What is the error message when you try to restore files in Windows 7?

Also, did you really use the Windows Easy Transfer Wizard to back up your files or did you use the built in the files and Settings Transfer wizard in Windows XP? If you used the files and Settings Transfer Wizard, that won't work no.

You must install Windows Easy Transfer on Windows XP, save the files as one. MIG file on your external drive, restore it on the Windows 7 computer. See for instructions:

Windows Easy Transfer. Dual boot Windows XP 32 and 64-bit Windows 7

I am upgrading to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit of Windows XP 32-bit profressionelle. I was looking at using the "Windows Easy Transfer" application for transfer settings. I will install Windows 7 on a separate partition and Windows XP is my current operating system. I want to use the WET program, but it implies that I'm to be transferred from ONE computer to another (using the cable or a network). It's the same machine and only no OS will run at the same time. How would I be able to use WET in this situation of dual boot? I have not yet installed Windows 7 or WET. Thanks, BarJabba

Is the Windows 7 Professional a full license or upgrade? Please note that you will be unable to dual boot using a license to upgrade because it requires that you have previous eligible license installed on the partition.

If it is a license full and that you plan to dual boot and want to transfer personal files and settings by using Windows Easy Transfer for Windows XP, you will need to do is select the option during the transfer Assistant Windows backup on an external storage device.

Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

Transfer files and settings with Windows Easy Transfer in Windows 8

Windows easy transfer supports several methods to transfer your files and settings.

You can use Windows easy transfer to transfer information to a computer running Windows 8 computers with one of the following operating systems:

? support document.
Step 1: Determine the best method of transfer

When you transfer files between Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 computers, choose a method that works on both computers. Windows easy transfer supports the following transfer methods:
- External hard drive or USB flash drive: to use a USB flash drive, you need a USB port on each computer. If you use an external hard drive, it must be compatible with both computers.
- Easy transfer cable: you need a special USB cable designed to work with Windows 8 and Windows Easy Transfer and a USB port on each computer. If you don't have an easy transfer cable, you can order one online or get one at an electronics store.

To decide which method to use, consider the amount of information you will sit. If you are transferring everything from all users on the computer, or all of your user account files, an easy transfer cable, external hard drive or a network works well. If you transfer only a few files or folders, a USB works well.
