在我们展示了如何使用Windows Easy Transfer备份您的数据以进行传输之后，是时候展示如何在新computer and/or Windows 操作系统(Windows operating)上恢复数据了。本教程将展示它是如何完成的，包括一些高级配置项，并分享转移工作所需的先决条件。准备好？让我们(Let)开始吧！
先决条件 -准备好数据(Data Ready)！
根据您备份数据的方式，确保您有可用的数据。例如，我使用外部硬盘进行传输。在开始传输之前，我需要将其插入，并等待Windows 7检测到它并安装它。
如果您使用的是适用于 Windows 的 Easy Transfer 电缆(Easy Transfer Cable for Windows)，请确保两台计算机都已打开，您都已登录并且电缆连接两台计算机。
Windows 轻松传送向导
首先，打开Windows Easy Transfer，如我们之前的教程所示：什么是Windows Easy Transfer 以及如何(Windows Easy Transfer & How)备份您的数据(Your Data)以进行传输(Transfer)。
准备好开始后，单击Next。
现在要求您选择要使用的传输方法。(transfer method)选择它。对于本教程，我需要单击“外部硬盘或 USB 闪存驱动器”("An external hard disk or USB flash drive")。
系统会询问您现在使用的是哪台计算机。点击(Click)“这是我的新电脑”("This is my new computer")。
系统会询问您Windows 轻松传送(Windows Easy Transfer)是否已从旧计算机保存您的文件。单击是(Yes)。如果你问我一个愚蠢的问题。我猜，微软(Microsoft)宁愿安全而不是抱歉，仔细检查人们是否真的做了备份。🙂
现在，系统会要求您打开备份数据的Easy Transfer 文件。(Easy Transfer File)浏览(Browse)到它的位置，选择它并单击Open。您要查找的文件将具有扩展名“.mig” /
为了安全起见，很可能在进行备份时添加了密码。输入该密码，然后单击(password and click) Next。
现在Windows Easy Transfer会花一些时间打开文件。根据其大小，可能需要一段时间。
完成后，您会看到备份中找到的文件和设置的摘要。单击(Click)自定义(Customize)以查看更多详细信息。
如果您想详细自定义从备份中恢复的内容和不恢复的内容，请单击“高级(Advanced)”，然后只选择要恢复的文件夹，就像创建备份时所做的那样。
在继续之前，您可以通过单击Advanced Options找到其他高级自定义选项，如下所示。
在“高级选项(Advanced Options)”窗口中，您可以将旧computer/operating system之间的用户帐户映射到新系统。如果旧计算机和新计算机上定义的用户帐户不同，则必须进行此映射，以便根据需要完成还原过程(restore process)。
在高级选项窗口的(Advanced Options)映射驱动器(Map drives)选项卡中，您可以在新旧计算机或操作系统(computer or operating system)之间映射驱动器。这里的想法是，如果在旧计算机或新计算机上，Windows安装在具有不同字母的驱动器上，那么您应该进行此映射。如果两者都使用“C:”作为驱动器(drive letter)号，则无需执行任何操作。完成所有设置后，单击保存(Save)。
您将返回Windows 轻松传送(Windows Easy Transfer)窗口。单击传输(Transfer)，该过程开始。如果您需要恢复大量数据和设置，请耐心等待。这需要一段时间。
该过程完成后，您会收到通知。您可以单击关闭(Close)以完成或选择两个可用选项中的任何一个，这将显示包含有关传输数据的报告。
这些报告包含大量信息，并不那么容易理解。这就是为什么我们将在新的几天内创建并分享一个关于它们的教程。
结论
如您所见，传输数据并不是很困难。您需要注意您所做的映射并愿意等待传输完成。但是，您无需像等待备份那样长时间等待。有关Windows Easy Transfer的更多提示和技巧，请查看以下推荐的文章。
Transferring Data with Windows Easy Transfer to a New Computer
After we have shown how to backup your data fоr transfer with Windows Easy Transfer, it is time to show how to restore it on a new computer and/or Windows operating system. This tutorial will show how it is done, including some advanced configuration items, and also share the prerequisites required for the transfer to work. Ready? Let's start!
Prerequisites - Have the Data Ready!
Depending on how you have backed up your data, make sure you have it available. For example, I used an external hard disk for the transfer. Before starting the transfer, I need to plug it in, and wait for Windows 7 to detect it and install it.
If you are using an Easy Transfer Cable for Windows, make sure both computers are turned on, you are logged in on both and the cable connects the two computers.
The Windows Easy Transfer Wizard
First, open Windows Easy Transfer, as shown in our previous tutorial: What is Windows Easy Transfer & How to Backup Your Data for Transfer.
When ready to start, click Next.
You are now asked to select which transfer method you want to use. Select it. For this tutorial, I needed to click on "An external hard disk or USB flash drive".
You are asked which computer you are using now. Click on "This is my new computer".
You are asked if Windows Easy Transfer already saved your files from the old computer. Click Yes. A stupid question if you ask me. I guess, Microsoft prefers to be safe than sorry and double check people really made their backups. 🙂
Now you are asked to open the Easy Transfer File where your data was backed up. Browse to its location, select it and click Open. The file you are looking for will have the extension ".mig"/
Most probably, when making the backup you added a password, for safety. Type that password and click Next.
Now Windows Easy Transfer spends some time opening the file. Depending on its size, it might take a while.
When done, you are shown a summary of the files and settings found in the backup. Click on Customize to see more details.
If you want to customize in detail what gets restored from your backup and what not, click on Advanced and, select only the folders you want restored, just like you did when creating the backup.
Before going forward, you can find other advanced customization options by clicking on Advanced Options, as shown below.
In the Advanced Options window, you can map user accounts between the old computer/operating system to the new one. If the user accounts defined on the old computer and the new one are different, you must make this mapping so that the restore process is done as you need.
In the Map drives tab of the Advanced Options window, you can map the drives between the old and new computer or operating system. The idea here is, if on the old computer or the new one, Windows is installed on a drive with a different letter, then you should make this mapping. If both used "C:" as the drive letter, you do not need to do anything. When done making all the settings, click Save.
You are back to the Windows Easy Transfer window. Click Transfer and the process starts. If you need to restore lots of data and settings, please be patient. This will take a while.
When the process is complete, you are notified. You can click Close to finish or select any of the two available options, which will show reports with data about the transfer.
These reports contain lots of info and are not that easy to understand. That's why we will create and share a tutorial about them in the new few days.
Conclusion
As you can see, transferring the data is not very difficult. You need to pay a bit of attention to the mappings you make and be willing to wait for the transfer to finish. However, you won't need to wait as much as you did for the backup. For more tips and tricks about Windows Easy Transfer, check out the articles recommended below.
