Transferring files and settings using Windows Easy Transfer

Windows Easy Transfer, a Microsoft data migration tool, provides a guide that helps you choose what
files and data to transfer from another Windows computer to your Windows Vista Business workstation
and explains how to transfer it. You can use one of the following interconnect or storage methods with
Windows Easy Transfer to migrate data from another Windows computer to your workstation:
●
Network—can be used when both the source computer and your workstation are connected to the
same network.
●
Easy Transfer cable—a specially designed USB cable that connects the source computer to your
workstation when performing a Windows Easy Transfer. While an Easy Transfer cable is not a
standard USB cable, it is commonly available from local electronics suppliers.
●
DVDs or CDs—can be used if you have writeable DVD or CD drives on the source computer and
your workstation.
● USB flash drive or an external hard drive—can access both the source computer and your
workstation.
To use the Windows Easy Transfer tool, select Start>All Programs>Accessories>System
Tools>Windows Easy Transfer.
