  1. trouble trying to move files from old w10 pc to new w11 pc


    I think I'm on the right track, but when I try to access w10 pc from the new one, it wants me to enter "credentials".On the old w10 pc, when I look for credentials, I find that I have no windows credentials.Am I in the right place?Is there an easier way to move files?My Plan B is to copy all my old w10 files to an external drive and then suck them on to the new w11 pc.But that involves one extra step, which will make this take a lot longer.Help!

    :)

  2. New PC with W10, I want to transfer Win11pro license to new pc from old PC

    I will be receiving a new PC with W10 home already installed. I have an old PC with W11 Pro (upgraded from W10 Pro).

    1. I would like to transfer my W11 Pro license to the new pc.

    2. I also would like it if my old PC can use W11 Home instead, after transferring W11 pro.

    2nd part

    A. May I be able install w11 pro as a clean install instead of a upgrade on my new computer?

    I have looked online for answers but I have unable to find them.

    Does anyone know the answers and the how-to?

    Any help is sincerely appreciated,

    Ruben

  3. transferring ~13 yr old pc (W10) to brand new W11 pc

    First, let me begin by sharing the 2 glitches up front:

    1. I am severely 'techno-inept'

    2. can NOT access 'Start' menu (thus settings) at all

    So, other than having to "reset password" for every bloody site/program/etc. currently in use

    on old desktop and downloading all new apps, software, etc; how do I complete initial boot-up

    of new W11 desktop with all (or even most) of the files currently residing in old W10 desktop??

    (old pc originally purchased with W7 and has been updated dozen times to current W10 version)

    Digital License W10 transplant from old laptop to new PC

    Hi guys,

    How do I transplant my digital license from my old laptop which is W10 Home Digital License to my new PC?

    I have followed a few guides. A little bit unclear, am I supposed to nuke the old laptop with reset then I can start activation procedure on my new PC?

    New PC is installed with W11, will there be issues to use the old license?
