    Thumb Drives

    Hi JJerryG530

    I am an independent advisor here to help

    First plug the thumb drive into the Windows 7 PC. Open file explorer and navigate to the Thumb drive. Copy any files that you wish to transfer to the Windows 10 PC onto the thumb drive.

    Now eject the tumb drive from the Windows 7 PC. Plug the thumb drive into the Windows 10 PC. Open file explorer and navigate to the Thumb drive. Copy or move the files from the thumb drive to a location on the Windows 10 PC
