  1. Transfer apps and data from one Windows to another on the same computer


    I have a desktop with three SSD's. I have been using SSD1 as my main disc, this is the default Windows Windows Home disc, and contains the apps and data I normally use. All works fine.

    On SSD3 is another installation Windows 10 Pro, brand new and with no users.

    I want to make SSD3 the default Windows installation, with all the apps, data and users currently working under the SSD1 Windows. So that Windows Pro has everything I was using with Windows Home i.e. looks like it, and IS it as far as users are concerned


    I don't imagine it's as easy as simply copying all the folders across from SSD1 to SSD3 !


    So how can I do this.


    Thanks

    :)

    Transfer apps and data from one Windows to another on the same computer

    transfer files between computers on a home network

    I don't know why this is so hard to do but I would like to transfer files between a desktop PC running windows 10 pro and a laptop running windows 10 home. I would like to transfer files in both directions. Both computers are on the same home network and are connected wirelessly.

    Could some one provide either specific step by step instructions on how to do this (I googled and found a countless list of instructions that don't work)

    or a link to a reference.

    Thanks,

    I don't know if this is possible but it would be nice to see the computer sending the desired file in the explorer file manager of the computer receiving the desired file and then under the computer see a list
    of shared files and folders.

    Again, this seems like such a reasonable way of sharing files and folders. Shouldn't there be a simple way to do this?
