It’s also worth noting that we would advocate migrating your applications manually, where possible. The Professional version of PCTrans is currently available for $49.95, will install an unlimited number of applications and can allow migrations to two computers. If you have old software you cannot find anywhere (and assuming it will work on your new PC), these tools are the priority for migration. The free version of PCTrans will transfer only two installed applications (which is two more than Laplink PCmover Express), but you could save this option for software that is hard to find or even unavailable. Migrating security software is nearly impossible, so avoid these tools entirely. Nearly always you will need to activate on the new computer, so make sure you deactivate on your current computer first. You might find the application migrates successfully, but forgets your preferences. Migrating installed applications is an art rather than a science. Once you’ve chosen your migration option, PCTrans will evaluate your current system and inform you of the applications it thinks it can migrate successfully.Īnd this is where we advise caution. Alternatively, like PCmover, you can choose a computer on your network and migrate. You can then simply load this image file on your new computer and migrate your data very swiftly. Where PCTrans excels is its ability to save your data to an image file. An alternative is EaseUS Todo PCTrans 9.8, which is a tool designed to migrate data from an old PC to new computer. But, Express is very simple, costs $15 and won’t migrate installed applications. In fact, a basic Express version is recommended by Microsoft. One solution is Laplink PCmover, which has been around for eons.
