    My boss has asked me to get a new computer for the office and also wants me to set it up. The old one is slow and takes for ever to load stuff. Since I also have to set it up, including e-mail accounts and office 2019 and several other programs I was wondering if it would be possible to use a program like PcMover to do this. I have no idea if that will work and don’t really trust the comments about how great they are. I was hoping that a few people on here did this and what the experience was. I know that several like software is available priced from $ 40 to $ 130. Any advice on any products and what to watch out for would be appreciated. the old computer has win 10, the new one has win11 on it

    Thanks

    Hi SVEN, I have usually just cloned the old comp, then transferred to the new comp storage (SSD or HDD).
    Make sure you have Software Keys (passwords) if needed and that you have more than adequate storage capacity.
