无论您打算将Windows XP、Vista、7 或 8 机器升级到Windows 10，还是购买预装了Windows 10的新 PC，您都可以使用(Windows 10)Windows 轻松传送(Windows Easy Transfer)从旧机器或旧版本复制所有文件和设置将Windows 安装到运行(Windows)Windows 10的新机器上。在本文中，我将引导您完成配置Windows Easy Transfer的步骤。
在我们开始之前，让我明确说明您可以使用Windows Easy Transfer 传输(Windows Easy Transfer)哪些内容：
– 用户帐户
– 文件
– 视频
- 音乐
- 图片
- 电子邮件
- 浏览器收藏夹
它不会转移程序。您必须在新的Windows 10 PC 上重新安装所需的任何程序。
Windows 10 上的 Windows 轻松传送
在开始之前，我们必须处理一个大问题。微软(Microsoft)已经从Windows 10中删除了(Windows 10)Windows Easy Transfer，现在建议使用一些第三方程序(suggests some third-party program)PCmover Express，这需要花钱！我不可能仅仅为了将一些数据从一台 PC 传输到另一台 PC 而支付任何费用。
幸运的是，有一种方法可以解决这个问题。基本上(Basically)，Windows Easy Transfer 程序(Windows Easy Transfer program)已经安装在Windows 7和Windows 8上。如果您使用的是Windows XP 或 Vista(Windows XP or Vista)，您可以从这里下载相应的版本：
Windows XP 轻松传送(Windows XP Easy Transfer)– https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7349
Windows Vista 轻松传输(Windows Vista Easy Transfer)– https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14179
现在，如果您尝试下载Vista 版本并在(Vista version)Windows 10上运行它，则会出现错误。但是，如果您有一台Windows 7 64 位计算机，您可以将包含Windows Easy Transfer 程序(Windows Easy Transfer program)的文件夹复制到U 盘(USB stick)，然后在Windows 10上运行它，它工作得很好。
如果您无法访问Windows 7 64 位计算机，我复制了该文件夹并将其压缩，您可以从此处下载。如果您有 32 位Windows 7 ，请在(Windows 7)Windows 7机器上运行预装的 32 位版本，但在Windows 10上下载 64 位版本。它可以导入 32 位版本的 Easy Transfer 文件(Transfer file)。只需(Simply)解压缩文件夹并运行migwiz.exe。
在旧电脑上运行 WET
要开始使用，您需要在旧 PC 或运行Windows XP、Vista 、7 或 8 的 PC 上打开(Vista)Windows Easy Transfer。请注意，如果您正在升级，请将旧机器视为旧版本的Windows，在本例中为Windows XP、Vista或 7。
另外，请注意，如果您要升级Windows XP 或 Vista(Windows XP or Vista)，则需要下载并安装Windows Easy Transfer，因为它没有内置程序(program built-in)。如果您运行的是Windows 7或 8，则它已经存在，您只需搜索即可。下载链接在上面。
请注意，它说它用于从XP 或 Vista(XP or Vista)转移到Windows 7，但您也可以使用它转移到Windows 8。在Windows 7中，只需搜索Easy Transfer，您就会看到它出现：
首先，我们将在旧机器上打开Easy Transfer，在我的情况下是 Windows 7。一旦你启动它，将弹出欢迎对话框，并为您提供可以传输哪些项目的概述：(Welcome dialog)
单击“下一步”(Click Next)，然后选择您要用于在旧 PC 和 Windows 8 之间传输的方法。您可以从Easy Transfer Cable、网络(a Network)或外部硬盘或 USB 闪存驱动器(external hard disk or USB flash drive)中进行选择：
如果您将计算机升级到Windows 10，那么您可以选择外部硬盘或 USB(disk or USB) 闪存驱动器(flash drive)，因为旧计算机和新计算机实际上是同一台计算机。当然，您必须有一个外部驱动器或 USB(drive or USB)闪存驱动器才能执行此操作。
如果您要在两台计算机之间进行传输，那么最好的选择是网络连接(network connection)，因为您可能在同一个无线家庭网络(wireless home network)上拥有这些计算机。如果您家里没有任何网络设置(network setup)，那么您可以使用Easy Transfer Cable，这是您必须购买的特殊电缆。这是来自亚马逊(Amazon)的列表：
http://www.amazon.com/Easy-Transfer-Cables/lm/R3G7LKPRYOEDL
在本文中，我将介绍网络方法(network method)，因为这是大多数人将使用的方法。如果您要转移到Windows 10，请选择USB 方法(USB method)。单击(Click)网络并选择这是旧计算机(A network)还是新计算机。在我们的例子中，我们从旧电脑开始，所以点击这是我的旧电脑(This is my old computer)。
在下一个屏幕上，您将看到一些说明，并且您会看到一个Windows 轻松传送键(Windows Easy Transfer key)。您将需要在新计算机上使用此密钥。
现在转到您的新Windows 机器(Windows machine)并启动Windows Easy Transfer 向导(Windows Easy Transfer wizard)。您可以在Windows 8中打开它，方法是转到“开始”屏幕(Start screen)，然后右键单击任意位置，直到在右下角看到“所有应用”。(All apps)然后向右滚动，您将在Windows System下看到它。
在Windows 10中，您需要在我上面的链接中下载Windows 7 64 位WET，或者您可以通过转到Windows 7 PC 上的以下文件夹自行下载：
C:\Windows\System32\
找到migwiz 文件夹并将其复制(folder and copy)到USB 闪存(USB flash)驱动器或云等。无论如何，只需将整个文件夹复制到 Windows 10 PC，然后双击 migwiz.exe。
现在按照与上述相同的步骤进行操作：在欢迎屏幕上单击下一步(Next)，选择要传输的网络，然后选择这是我的新电脑(This is my new PC)。在下一个屏幕上，您必须告诉Windows是否安装了Easy Transfer，或者您是否正在运行Windows 7，在这种情况下，它已经安装。
就我而言，我是从Windows 7转移的，所以我选择了My old PC is running Windows 7 或 Windows 8(My old PC is running Windows 7 or Windows 8)。单击下一步(Click Next)。您将获得前往旧 PC 并获取密钥的说明，我们已经这样做了。再次单击下一步(Click Next)。
现在继续输入您从旧计算机获得的密钥，然后单击Next。该程序将首先下载Easy Transfer 程序(Easy Transfer program)的所有更新：
完成此操作后，它将扫描旧计算机上的用户帐户（这需要几分钟），并准确告诉您将传输多少MB的数据：(MBs worth)
您可以单击自定义(Customize)链接以查看每个文件夹的确切大小，如果您不想传输音乐或视频(Music or Videos)等所有内容，则可以取消选中特定文件夹。如果单击此处的高级链接(Advanced link)，您将获得一个资源管理器对话框(Explorer dialog)，您可以在其中选中和取消选中每个主文件夹下的特定文件夹。
如果您单击高级选项(Advanced Options)，您可以更改用户帐户的映射方式。如果两台计算机上的账户名相同，它会自动链接它们，但您可以在此处更改：
差不多就是这样。单击传输(Transfer)，您的文件和设置将被传输过来！这里最重要的是应用程序设置(App Settings)，如果您在计算机上安装了一些重型程序（如MS Office），对它们进行自定义，现在必须在Windows 10上重新安装它们，这将非常有用。如果您使用Easy Transfer 向导(Easy Transfer wizard)传输设置，您可以在Windows 10上安装该应用程序并保留所有这些设置和自定义。如果您对转移过程(transfer process)有任何疑问，请在此处发表评论，我会尽力提供帮助。享受！
Transfer Files from Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8 to Windows 10 using Windows Easy Transfer
Whether you plаn to upgrade yoυr Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8 machine to Windows 10 or buy a new PC with Windows 10 pre-installed, you can use Windows Easy Tranѕfer tо copy all your files and settings from your old machine or old verѕiоn of Windows to yoυr new machine running Windows 10. In thiѕ article, I’ll walk you through the steps to configure Windows Easy Transfer.
Before we get started, let me clarify exactly what you can transfer using Windows Easy Transfer:
– User Accounts
– Documents
– Videos
– Music
– Pictures
– Email
– Browser Favorties
It will not transfer over the programs. You will have to reinstall any programs that you want on your new Windows 10 PC.
Windows Easy Transfer on Windows 10
Before we get started, there is one big issue we have to deal with. Microsoft has removed Windows Easy Transfer from Windows 10 and now suggests some third-party program PCmover Express, which costs money! There is no way I’m paying any money just to transfer some data from one PC to another.
Luckily, there is a way to get around this problem. Basically, the Windows Easy Transfer program is already installed on Windows 7 and Windows 8. If you are using Windows XP or Vista, you can download the appropriate version from here:
Windows XP Easy Transfer – https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7349
Windows Vista Easy Transfer – https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14179
Now, if you try to download the Vista version and run it on Windows 10, it gives you an error. However, if you have a Windows 7 64-bit machine, you can copy over the folder that contains the Windows Easy Transfer program to a USB stick and then run it on Windows 10 and it works just fine.
If you do not have access to a Windows 7 64-bit machine, I copied the folder and zipped it up, which you can download from here. If you have 32-bit Windows 7, run the preinstalled 32-bit version on the Windows 7 machine, but download the 64-bit version on Windows 10. It can import a 32-bit version of an Easy Transfer file. Simply uncompress the folder and run migwiz.exe.
Run WET on Old Computer
To get started, you need to open Windows Easy Transfer on your old PC or the PC that is running Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8. Note that if you are doing an upgrade, think of the old machine as the old version of Windows, in this case Windows XP, Vista, or 7.
Also, note that if you are upgrading Windows XP or Vista, you will need to download and install Windows Easy Transfer as it does not come with the program built-in. If you are running Windows 7 or 8, it’s already there and you can just search for it. The download links are above.
Note that it says it’s for transferring from XP or Vista to Windows 7, but you can use it to transfer to Windows 8 also. In Windows 7, just search for Easy Transfer and you’ll see it show up:
To start, we will open Easy Transfer on the old machine, in my case Windows 7. Once you start it, the Welcome dialog will pop up and give you an overview of what items you can transfer:
Click Next and then choose the method you want to use to transfer between the old PC and Windows 8. You can choose from Easy Transfer Cable, a Network, or an external hard disk or USB flash drive:
If you are upgrading a computer to Windows 10, then you can choose external hard disk or USB flash drive since the old and the new computer is actually the same computer. You’ll, of course, have to have a external drive or USB flash drive in order to do this.
If you’re transferring between two computers, then the best option is a network connection since you probably have the computers on the same wireless home network. If you don’t have any network setup at home, then you can use an Easy Transfer Cable, which is a special cable you have to buy. Here is a list from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Easy-Transfer-Cables/lm/R3G7LKPRYOEDL
In this article, I’ll go through the network method since that is what most people will be using. If you are transferring to Windows 10, then choose the USB method instead. Click on A network and choose whether this is the old or the new computer. In our case, we are starting with the old computer, so click on This is my old computer.
On the next screen, you’ll see some instructions and you’ll see a Windows Easy Transfer key. You will need to use this key on the new computer.
Now go to your new Windows machine and start the Windows Easy Transfer wizard. You can open it in Windows 8 by going to the Start screen and then right-clicking anywhere until you see All apps at the bottom right. Then scroll to the right and you’ll see it under Windows System.
In Windows 10, you’ll need to either download the Windows 7 64-bit WET in the link I have above or you can do it yourself by going to the following folder on your Windows 7 PC:
C:\Windows\System32\
Find the migwiz folder and copy it to a USB flash drive or to the cloud, etc. However you do it, just copy that entire folder to your Windows 10 PC and then double-click on migwiz.exe.
Now follow the same steps as above: click Next on the welcome screen, choose a network for how you want to transfer, and then choose This is my new PC. On the next screen, you have to tell Windows whether you installed Easy Transfer or if you’re running Windows 7, in which case it’s already installed.
In my case, I am transferring from Windows 7, so I chose My old PC is running Windows 7 or Windows 8. Click Next. You’ll get the instructions to go to your old PC and get the key, which we already did. Click Next again.
Now go ahead and type in the key that you got from your old computer and click Next. The program will download any updates to the Easy Transfer program first:
Once it has done that, it will scan the user accounts on the old computer (which takes a few minutes) and tell you exactly how many MBs worth of data will be transferred:
You can click on the Customize link to see exactly how big each folder will be and you can uncheck specific folders if you don’t want to transfer everything like Music or Videos, etc. If you click on the Advanced link here, you will get an Explorer dialog where you can check and uncheck specific folders under each of the main folders.
If you click on Advanced Options, you can change how the mapping of the user accounts will occur. If the names of the accounts on both computers are the same, it will automatically link them, but you can change it here:
That’s pretty much it. Click on Transfer and your files and settings will be transferred over! The most important thing here is the App Settings, which is really useful if you installed some heavy-duty programs on your computer like MS Office, customized them, and now have to reinstall them on Windows 10. If you transfer the settings using the Easy Transfer wizard, you can install the app on Windows 10 and retain all those settings and customizations. If you have any questions about the transfer process, post a comment here and I’ll try to help. Enjoy!
