• Windows Easy Transfer of file still works after ignoring documents

  I'm going from Windows XP pro to Windows 7.  I downloaded the Windows easy file transfer software on my XP machine.

  I'm running the transfer to a USD drive.   At the end of the transfer there are errors that 88 documents and 2 programs would not transfer.  I hit 'Skip' to all the documents and programs.

  It's been three hours since I skipped the files and the transfer is not yet done.  He said 'time of 1 minute transfer' in the right corner of the screen because I skipped files.

• File transfer from Windows XP to Windows 7 Pro.

  How can I transfer my old PC of Windows XP files to the new PC with Win7 Pro? I tried to install Windows Easy transfer on the old PC, but it won't let me install it and install on Windows XP file transfer doesn't transfer for Windows easy transfer. How can I transfer my old files?

  How to organize and archive files

  Allows you to do this by using the organizational tools built into Windows 7. The first place wherever I start looking at is my downloads folder since I do a lot of downloading.

  

  In order to properly analyze what we can, keep and move to an external hard drive, we'll use the menu to change the view . Click on the menu to change the view, and then click details.

  

  You will notice that your files are organized with more details. To further customize the view, click the Date Modified column header. This will allow us to view the files when they were used or last edited. Another column, I recommend that you post is the Date created column.

  

  Right-click on the column heading, and then click on created.

  

  This will give us a better idea of the age of the file and if its worth keeping.

  

  Looking through my downloads folder, I have files going back to the beginning of 2007 and the last time that I accessed them were in 2007. Certainly not useful to keep on disk. If these files will be archived and moved to my external hard drive.

  Archiving

  Obviously, to do something like that, you're going to need an external hard drive. You could choose DVD as a backup method, but they can be unreliable and more a chore, especially with the permutation of the disc in question. Once you have identified the files you need to Archive, open your external hard drive and create a folder specially for these files called Archive.

  

  Open it and then go back to the (window) folder where your old files are currently on your local hard drive. Select the files, and then click organize > copy

  

  Return to the folder Archive (window) we have created on the external hard drive, and then click organize > then click Paste

  

  

  Please wait while files are copied to. Once this done, go back to the folder and click on organize > delete or press Delete on your keyboard.

  Simplify the file selection and copy

  If you want to select files in a date range, just select the first file then click on any file within the range, see below:

  

  

  Repeat these steps for the other records of the person such as Documents, music, photos and videos. When you are finished archiving, you can move to permanently delete these files from your bin if all are stored:

  

  I was able to recover coupons 10 GB worth of disk space only from my only download folder.

• How can I transfer encrypted files from old hard drive removed (transfer windows easy?)

  Hello

  I'm trying to get some files off my old hard drive encrypted. He has xp on it, and I can't start on my new computer. Since it is a separate, apparently, I can't do either windows easy transfer. Is it possible for me to locate the certificate and key, or to transfer files with the key and the certificate on my new computer (I have password from the old computer if I need that)? Can I somehow run WET on this hard drive for keys/certificates can be transferred. This seems to be a common problem from what I have read.
  Otherwise, do you have ideas on how to start my old xp disk on my new system without reformatting?
  Very important to get these files.
  Thank you!

  First of all, I assume you mean encrypted files (EFS, Encrypting File System).  These files are encrypted with a key that is still encrypted in your system like a certificate.  In order to read your encrypted on any other system files, you must restore the certificate from a backup.  The short article is mandatory for anyone considering the use of EFS:
  "Best Practices for encrypting file system"

  Special attention to the subsection down titled "why you should back up your certificates.

  I have my old Windows XP, Media Center Edition and has been upgraded from the hard drive because my old one was a lot of noise and I feared an imminent failure. I thought that I would use Windows Easy Transfer to copy and restore all my files on the new drive. I transferred all user data on an external USB hard disk, and managed. However, when I go to restore using Windows Easy Transfer, it doesn't gives me not a choice to restore to my new computer. He sees it only as the old computer and I never have the option. Is there a work around for this?

• Can I remove the file 'SaveData.mig' after I run Windows Easy Transfer?

  Can I remove the file 'SaveData.mig' after I run Windows Easy Transfer?

  I used easy transfer to move files from an old computer to my new about 12 months ago. The SaveData.mig file takes 22 GB of space on the new computer. I would like to remove it but I don't know if it will mess up all my files that have been transferred to my new computer. Anyone know if I can delete this file in order to free up space? Thank you

  I agree with Mohdrafi - you can remove safely; However, you should have a more recent backup of your current files just to be on the right side (image FULL weekly backup and an incremental backup every day for an external HARD drive - I've seen too many people get burned when their drive hard breaks down or something worse and then they lose all their precious documents (, photos, audio and other files).  There ARE recovery procedures, but they don't always work, and they don't always get everything (especially if you expect to solve the problem or continue to use the PC in the meantime)- and depending on your version of Vista.  Delete this file will NOT affect the files and settings that you restored using the process.  Could have deleted it hours after that the process has been done (once you have a good backup) and it would have been very well then.  If you have a good backup, I can see no reason whatsoever to keep the file.

  If the normal delete function in Vista doesn't work, try using one of the following free products to remove the file.  Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when normal functions remove Vista not work correctly.

  Congratulations to the use of Easy Transfer - this is a pretty cool tool isn't it?  Not sure how many threads that we have here people with issues or recoving given him--I saw a lot.  It seems easy on the surface, but when it doesn't work it can become quite complex and aggravating (and I know people who have unfortunately never were able to retrieve their data and settings no matter what we tried).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
