You can copy the migwiz folder (32bit) and migration folder (64bit) from a W7 machine (c:/windows/system32) and run it on a W10 machine. At least it just let me transfer a profile from a W7 to a W10.

I have to presume it would run 10 to 10 just as well. EDIT: Ok, that was just stupid on my part. The 'migration' folder is not a migration wizard for 64 bit. I definitely jumped the shark on that one. I am, however, having trouble understanding where the 64 bit version lives. If I'm on a 64 bit machine and double-click migwiz.exe it complains that it's for a 32-bit system. If I pull up Windows Easy Transfer, right-click and say open file location - it takes me to the same migwiz.exe file that I clicked manually and got the error.

So, Windows, which is it?? Edited Jan 15, 2016 at 15:13 UTC. Bryan Doe wrote: Did you edit any of the files going from 7 to 10, or did it 'just work'? I've only done 10 to 10 lately, but will be doing a lot of 7 to 10 soon. I seem to remember some start menu goofiness with 10 in the past. I copied both folders to the W10 machine (c: temp), hit migwiz.exe and it ran. Prompted for transfer method, new machine, old machine, etc.

Selected Network and New Computer and Old computer is W7. They connected, scanned user profiles and I just picked a smaller one.

It all ran and completed as it would on W7 machines. Oh wow, I totally missed you were referring to Easy Transfer. That's great to know, the network option was really nice to have. On the subject of USMT, I created a profile on a test machine and customized it (dummy files, the background, Firefox, etc) and then ran the following: Scanstate.exe path to save to /ue:* * /ui:contoso username /i:migapp.xml /i:migdocs.xml /i:miguser.xml /v:5 /vsc After a wipe and reload, I used this: Loadstate.exe c: pathtousmt /i:migapp.xml /i:migdocs.xml /i:miguser.xml Seems to have worked well. I had to edit migapp.xml and change 'Firefox 3.*' to 'Firefox *.*'. The only problem I saw was that by default it copied the D: drive from the machine and placed the text file I'd created there at the root of C. For my purposes I'll remove that.
