I didn't know whether to laugh or cry watching the video. After hours of viewing other KZbin videos and doing other google searches on the same issue, you saved me. I already have the passport drive at home, but never thought to use it for "transferring" some of the old programs I have and want to continue to use. Thanks so much John for all the information, it you made my day! 🙂

[@cherimiller9126]

Thank you so, so, so much! I am beyond frustrated with trying to transfer my programs to my new laptop and you are the only resource I've found that may actually help me get the job done. I've been months searching for help, then having to walk away for my sanity - a week later, I'd try again - over and over. And not only did you give me information, but explained it in a normal, conversational way that I could effortlessly understand. Thank you again for your excellent video and taking the time to help out all of us who rely on a computer but don't work in IT. I can't tell you what a relief it is.

Thank you John. $119 to upgrade my PC to Windows 10. Refurbished HP loaded with Windows 10, $150 on Amazon. Now I can transfer my "stuff" easier thanks to you.

EXCELLENT job - LOVED it!! Entertaining, informative and presented in a way that a novice computer operator can relate to and understand.

[@kevindigo22]

Loved this video, I watched it until the end for the entertainment value...and laughed through much of it...even though I was pretty sure it would not help me with my computer problems. And I subscribed. Copying files from an old computer to a new computer is no big deal, there are several ways to do it. The issue is getting old legacy programs installed on a new version of Windows. Copying program files doesn't install them. I am still not sure how you were able to get your programs to work on Win10 just by copying them over from your external backup drive. Sounds like a miracle to me. Four years later from when you made this video, I am trying to migrate programs from an old PC running Win10 to a new PC running Win11. I tried cloning my old HDD onto a new SSD to use as a boot drive in the new PC, but this doesn't work. But I do have all my old files in my new PC now from doing this. Microsoft makes it impossible to transfer installed programs from an old PC on an older OS system onto a new PC running a newer OS. This is intentional, it is called forced obsolescence...to force you to buy new subscriptions to all the programs you already paid for once. It is frustrating, to say the least.

[@Nighthawkrun]

Thank you John for explaining moving program files, you helped a retired guy out. Take care, Jim

[@sreekumarUSA]

Uncle John, bless you. You are a saviour. I am is the same predicament as you were when you migrated to WIN X. Like you browsed and browsed, I did too, until I found you, as Almighty’s gift.

I did not have a backup drive but I did have a zip drive so I followed your instructions using that. Worked perfectly without having to navigate through the Office 365 mess. Thanks a million!

Absolutely loved watching your video. One of the most entertaining and informative videos I have ever watched. Thanks for the chuckles and information!

[@NFAtoys]

As a retired Sr. Software Engineer who’s designed Microsoft Windows programs since Windows Version 2.0, I can assure everyone watching this video that this technique will only work for programs that install ALL their components in the application subdirectory in the Programs directory, and don’t rely on any Registry Keys, COM DLL’s, or Services that get installed with the software. There are many programs that fall into this category, however, in today’s world of software, most programs are written that use Registered DLL’s that get installed in a Windows System directory. If these aren’t copied or copied and not registered, the program can’t work. It certainly doesn’t hurt to try, but don’t be disappointed if it doesn’t work.

[@yumpinyiminy963]

I'm moving win 10 to a new win 10 computer with all new hardware. I'm building it myself. I have a cloned M2 drive of my old system. I wanted to just boot to it but, I'm thinking it won't work due to drivers and the registry file and or other files. Yes/No? New Topic: Everytime I tried to run an old program from say from win 7. I would use the properties / compatibility tab and tell it to run as win 7. It never works. From NT to 7 to 10. Do you know why? Thanks!

[@backyardjunkie]

John, bless you, 4 years on and I'm watching this, your a joy to listen to, and it worked, Photoshop, moved...... Thank you sir, hope your well, and Merry Christmas.

[@jtylermusic]

I had Photoshop 6.0 on a laptop, so I just went into my C:program files (x86) and right clicked on Photoshop 6.0 to copy it. I had my Passport (flash drive) inserted in a USB port. I then went to it...right clicked to paste...and pasted it from the Passport into my Dell Desktop C: Program Files (x86) and I now enjoy Photoshop 6.0 in Windows 10! July 19, 2023

Me too, I really just wanted to get to the answer, but I continued to listen for some other reason that wasn't first obvious to me lol

[@viajerozz]

I think you're lucky that worked..count your blessings. As a rule it is not advisable to only transfer Program Files (x86) program folders to a new location as a software program installation scatters other critical files in other locations such as your appData folder and registry settings.

[@jtylermusic]

Thank YOU....for your nice comments. John

[@SilverGoldComics]

Thanks but a little confusing. I would have liked visuals. I bought PC Mover which didn't work and was considering Zinstall. My issue is that the brilliant people at Dell now make computers with very small SSD C drives and large D hard drives. Problem is, everything on my old computer is on the C drive, so PC Mover can't switch drives and after 8 hours of transfer, tells me the C drive is too small, duh! I have the same portable hard drive ou have, which has worked great for me over the years, so I'll review this again and see if I can follow.

[@jtylermusic]

I bought Zinstall...wasted my money - didn't work. That is THE REASON I had to figure out how to do this. So, if it's worth the time, take the time to slowly go through my video and you will get it at some point. John

Allow one more comment from me. You did a great job here for many. Ignore the trolls if possible. I know you, like me, think you can shut them up but they only get more fired up because someone finally noticed them. Sitting in mom's basement all day gets lonely for them. I too have found most of them haven't even made a bad quality video. I too always jump to the channel of a insulting troll to see who or what they are and most of the time they don't actually exist as a KZbinr creator or they may have a Play LIst of other peoples heavy metal songs or video game screen captures. You rule, they drool.

[@edsalvagni2246]

Love your delivery! It made watching really enjoyable. Thanks for the help.

[@williamdavis716]

Glad that worked for you, HOWEVER, your method does not take into consideration any modifications to the System Registry that most Windows applications make during the installation process. Simply copying the program folders will, in most cases, not be enough to get your application to work properly. Good luck to all struggling with this issue.

[@12thDecember]

That occurred to me, too, but I'm going to attempt to install whatever programs I can from either a disk or via online, because I'm pretty good at recordkeeping when it comes to license numbers and such and have only installed each program once. As a last resort I'll cross my fingers and use my external HD which happens to already have the 86x folder on it. I agree with John that transfer programs are cr@p. All you need to do is read the customer reviews for any of them and you know there's got to be a better way. I also hate Windows 10 with the fire of a thousand burning suns, but I'm stuck with using a PC because my job software does not run on a Mac and I'm not tech savvy enough to use Linux.

[@jtylermusic]

I don't kow if you are also using Passport, and I have no way to know the capacity of your external hard drive, but I do know that when you pulg it into your old computer (Windows7) it should show up. Your computer should give you an audio signal that the device is logged in. Then, to verify, you should go to "My Computer" and it will show you all of the devices, including your hard drive C. If you don't see your external device there...then for some reason, it's not available or compatible. JT

[@HOTRhuntinontherock]

@@jtylermusic I just got it to show up, here is what i did, maybe will help someone else. On my old computer, i started by opening the Documents And Settings folder, Double-click the "SendTo" folder to open it. (If you don’t see the SendTo folder, you’ll need to choose to display hidden files and folders. Click View | Folder Options |View tab. Under Advanced Settings, select Show Hidden Files And Folders. Click OK. ) Then I right-clicked somewhere in the empty space of the SendTo folder. Choose New | Shortcut. Complete the Create Shortcut wizard to point to a new location, (which was my external hard drive) and when i was done, it will appear as a destination in my Send To menu.

I'm finally moving from win 7 PC to a HP i5 17.3 laptop with Win 11 installed. Like you, I loved win 7 but I'm slowly coming to terms with the new Win 11 layout. Anyway, a few years ago I moved from Photoshop CC to Elements 10 because I started to use Capture One pro for most of my processing and only needed the Photoshop aspect to run my Google free version of Nik software, plus I like the dodge and burn tool in Photoshop anyway. I don't want to pay a fortune for the latest NIK software, but will upgrade to PS Elements 22. So I was wondering if I could save the NIK Plugin folder (currently in its old place "program Data folder) to my own external drive, and save it again to the new plugin folder in Elements 22, (as Adobe now requests)? I will certainly give it a try. I have also saved the original exe. file, so if first I don't succeed I will try to do a fresh install with that. Fingers crossed.

This could be very handy! A quick question. Are you still able to access the programs on your old beast? I will be trying this in the next little while.

[@jtylermusic]

That is correct. You are basically going into the X86 files in your old computer (Windows 7...or XP...doesn't matter) and copying the file to the (in my case) 1 Terabyte Passport)....then loading the Passport via USB cable into the new computer (in my case Windows 10)....so that I have the exact same files, keys...whatever is in the original program or file in both computers. You should be able to go into each computer and do what you always did. In my case, I ended up selling the older Dell Dimension Inspiron on Facebook Marketplace for a handsome sum, so I wiped all but the Windows 7 and Google Chrome for the guy who bought it. - JT

Wipe it out and try it again. Office 13 likely has large files. Just do the one transfer of Office 13...no other programs and see if that corrects the missing .dll. Been there...did that. Frustrating. JT

will this work with a hot swap hard drive setup for thinkpads using a 2nd HDD SSD Hard Drive Caddy where the cd drive is to move the files over from windows 7 to 10

[@jtylermusic]

I'm not familiar with that. All I can offer is that any hard drive backup system should work. One program at a time is how I did mine.

@@jtylermusic well the way it works its my actual hard drive so it will have my old and new hard drive in the same computer

John, I am presently going through the same thing you so aptly describe in this very informative You Tube, including shooting myself in the head, kicking the dog, beating the wife and yelling at the kids (just kidding). But, the total frustration of trying to move my everyday programs from my old HP Win 7 computer to my new Dell XPS Win 10 computer is NOT kidding. My question to you is: do you think I can use my Seagate 2T USB external backup hard drive the same way you used your Passport Ultra to move my applications (I still think of them as "Programs") between computers? PS: I loved your presentation.

[@jtylermusic]

Yes. I did it with my 1 TB hard drive, so your 2 TB hard drive should do the exact same thing. John

[@jtylermusic]

Yes, I believe you can. John
