Windows 10: Using Phone Link App, can I transfer data from archived, stored, data on PC from Offline...

I have a Samsung phone that has completely died. However, I had recently been synced to my PC via Microsoft's Phone Link. So, on my PC, I still can see all of my text messages from when I was last connected. Is there a way to transfer this, primarily text messages, to a different Samsung that I've now got connected to Phone Link? I certainly don't want to lose these messages.Thanks to anyone that can help with explaining how to do this,Jeff

:)

 

Transfer My Data App

Configuration used: Lumia 730 with Windows Phone 8.1 Denim

Transfer My Data app allows you to EXPORT Contacts and SMS messages to your SD Card. (Option accessed through . . . menu on first screen)

The exported items are saved to D:\backup\data\20150106155329\sms

The path contains date and time in the folder name

How to access this folder?

If the phone is connected to a Windows 8.1 machine the phone shows up in "This PC"

Music, Pictures, Video and Document folders on the phone can be accessed and items moved between phone and PC.

Also Windows Phone App shows only the type of folders listed above.

Any suggestions on how to locate the d:\Backup\Data.... folder?

Thanks.

Data transfer

I have purchased a data transfer cable thinking I would be able to transfer (a lot) of photographs from my Windows 10 PC to my laptop. However I cannot do this and have searched the internet and even contacted microsoft customer service who were no help
at all (suggesting that I did it with a memory stick) I know that the Data Transfer is no longer available. All suggestions seem to be to transfer data TO windows 10. Can anybody help please?
