I have installed a new SSD and put a fresh copy of windows on. I want to be able to have my desktop exactly the same as it is on my HDD. Is there an easy way to do this?

I have a terrible internet connection so I would rather not download them again.

When would I have to use the User State Migration Tool? Would Windows Easy Transfer be recommended for me? I've never used USMT before and WET is supposed to be easier for general users. I could format the SSD and reinstall if necessary.
