• Slow Windows easy transfer

  I am preparing my Compaq desktop PC for Windows XP Media 2005 conversion to Windows 7 and am following the steps on the Windows website.  I downloaded and successfully installed Windows Easy Transfer and I use an external hard drive with 610 GB of free space to store the backup data.  WET said I have about 370 GB for transfer and seems to be * very * slow.  The estimated process time ramps upward to 11 days and continues to grow rapidly.  Is this a known issue?  I'm doing something wrong?  Any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated.

  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:
  • Windows 8

  • Windows 7

  • Windows Vista

  • Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) or Service Pack 3 (SP3)
  

  NOTE: Windows Easy Transfer cannot transfer files between a 64-bit version of Windows and a 32-bit version of Windows. Instead, the files must be transferred manually using external storage devices. To find the version of Windows on your computer, see the is the Version on my computer 32-bit or 64-bit Windows
  ? 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. The easy transfer cable is supported on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 computers.

  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.

  Thanks for answer you, it is really useful.

  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:

  Cannot install files of Vista in Windows 7 with Windows Easy Transfer

  I got files on the old computer (Windows Vista 32 bit). They are now stored on my external hard drive. I have a new computer with Windows 7. Using Windows Easy Transfer, I transferred the original files on the external hard drive before stopping the old computer.

  Windows Easy Transfer and files and Settings Transfer seized were never so great because they are really made to move (IMHO) from one system to the other * at time of the original operating system release * because they start pretty quickly leaving aside the settings and applications.  Since you are going from Windows XP to Windows 7, use this:
