My 10 year old refurbed PC is dying a slow death since upgrading to Windows 10 last July. So I got a newer refurbed one - MUCH nicer and faster.

I'm using Ethernet to copy files over, between them. But the old one is now Windows 10 and I got the newer one with Windows 8.1, because of the Windows 10 nightmare.

So I'm copying data files over. I imagine all I need to do is download a fresh RSD copy and install on the newer PC. But how can I migrate settings over? Hard or simple?

Hi Melissa,
Copy all of your project files to your pc then after you install RSD you'll be able to open them. If your publishing to S-Drive you'll need to reenter your username and password.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
