If you are transferring to Windows 10, then choose the USB method instead. Click on A network and choose whether this is the old or the new computer. In our case, we are starting with the old computer, so click on This is my old computer. You will need to use this key on the new computer. Now go to your new Windows machine and start the Windows Easy Transfer wizard. You can open it in Windows 8 by going to the Start screen and then right-clicking anywhere until you see All apps at the bottom right.
Find the migwiz folder and copy it to a USB flash drive or to the cloud, etc. However you do it, just copy that entire folder to your Windows 10 PC and then double-click on migwiz. Now follow the same steps as above: click Next on the welcome screen, choose a network for how you want to transfer, and then choose This is my new PC. Click Next. Click Next again. Now go ahead and type in the key that you got from your old computer and click Next.
The program will download any updates to the Easy Transfer program first:. Once it has done that, it will scan the user accounts on the old computer which takes a few minutes and tell you exactly how many MBs worth of data will be transferred:.
