New Computer

There is a question: I am getting a new personal computer, and, of
course, I want to transfer some files and
folders/directories/subdirectories that I have on this PC to the new
one. What files and folders/directories/subdirectories would I
transfer?

Thank you,

Barry Karas

The Files and Settings Transfer Wizard will transfer email messages, IE favorites,
and many other files and settings. However, it does not transfer programs.
