Transferring Information Using Windows Vista
The Windows Vista operating system provides the Easy Transfer wizard to
move data from a source computer to a new computer. You can transfer data,
such as:
• User account
• Files and folders
• Program settings
• Internet settings and favorites
• E-mail settings, contacts, and messages
You can transfer the data to the new computer over a network or serial
connection, or you can store it on removable media, such as a writable CD,
for transfer to the new computer.
There are two ways to access the Easy Transfer wizard:
• When Windows Vista setup is completed, you will see the Windows Vista
Welcome Center. One icon in the Welcome Center is
Transfer Files and
Settings
. Click this icon to start Windows easy Transfer.
• If the Welcome Center dialog box has been closed, you can access Easy
Transfer by clicking
