    Thanks guys! Accompanying PCmover Express tutorial will be done probably today, latest in a few days. Screenshots and script already made.



    I was thinking if I should mention about the offered Bing, Get Office365 and OneDrive options but while thinking about it, forgot it totally. Do you guys think I would need to edit the video, add something about that and reupload?
    Maybe not the video but in the description of the video maybe.

    OK, I decided to add the warning to PCmover Express video and reupload the new edited version. Old version has been removed from YouTube and our Video Library, the new version available in post #776 and in Video Library.

    Do you know if it can be used like my question in post#784?
    Can an it be used to "clone" an account on the same PC?

    No. The free Express version of the PCmover only works when the old and new machines are connected with each other, either over the network or with a cable.

    If I have understood it correctly the Pro version includes option to do the transfer using external storage, meaning you could use it for instance to backup your stuff on old installation, clean install on the same machine and restore your data. However, I am not willing to pay for it just to get it tested.

    A workaround is to use another PC and do the transfer twice: first transfer User A from PC1 to "new" PC2, then using the PC2 as old PC transfer that data to User B back on PC1.

    So, the pro version is like what came in Windows 7 for free, just like the ability to play DVD's out of the box... you want it, you buy it.

    Ok got it, thanks Kari, it's good to know before I recommend it to someone.:)

    Addition to my last post: I DO realize, it probably has to do with licensing cost and keeping Windows 10 affordable to the masses.

    Doesn't mean we have to like it though, Cliff. :)

    @Cliff S, you gave me an idea! Let me check if what you would like to achieve is possible using a simple workaround... Stay tuned :)

    Wow! I just watched the Snip video and was amazed! Even when we were "working" on the video, I had no idea there was so much to it!

    I'm going to watch again, and then go get it for myself.
