Backup old computer and restore onto new computer
A friend of mine smashed his all-in-on PC with Windows 10 Home and asked me to make a backup of his data and later restore the data onto his new PC. I have basically two questions about this:
1.) How do I do the backup best? Can this be done with Windows' own backup feature, or is it better to use a third-party application for that (which one)?
2.) Is it later possible to restore everything (desktop, documents, applications, settings, email accounts and emails) or is that basically with Windows not possible? Is something like EaseUS Todo PCTrans a good applications for such a task?
I'm asking this because I am mainly a Mac person where such a task would be easy but I remember that at least in the past this kind of data transfer was not easy or even not possible with Windows.
Thanks for your help!
