This guide walks you through the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard, which eases the process of copying files and settings from your old computer to a new computer. It is intended for home users, small office users, or users in a "lightly managed" corporate environment.
Introduction
Getting a new computer often requires repeating much of the same setup configuration you originally did with your old computer. And even after all the reconfiguration, you still don't have your data from the old computer. Locating this data and figuring our how to move it can be a significant challenge. The Windows® XP operating system streamlines this process with the new Files and Settings Transfer Wizard. By providing clear instructions at each step, the wizard walks you through the process of automatically gathering your files and settings from your old computer and transferring them to your new computer.
The wizard is designed for users in a home or small office environment. The wizard is also useful in a corporate network environment for employees who get a new computer and need to migrate their own files and settings without the support of an IT department or Helpdesk.
The wizard provides a rich set of options that walk you through the process of migrating to a new computer.
You can:
" Choose how to store files and settings that are migrated. The wizard supports copying old files and settings via:
" 3.5 inch disks or other removable media.
" A direct cable connection from your old computer to your new computer.
" A drive on a home network.
" Customize which files and settings get migrated. If you already know exactly which files and settings you want to migrate, you can add or remove files directly in the wizard.
Copying files to a home network drive is the fastest method. If you don't have a home network, try using a direct cable connection between your computers. Because the wizard uses auto detection to configure ports for the cable, you don't need to go through any complicated setup procedures.
Finally, using 3.5-inch disks takes the most time as you will usually need one-two disks to migrate settings and five-ten disks to migrate files and settings. The wizard prompts you for each disk as it collects and saves your files and settings on your old computer. When you run the wizard on your new computer, the wizard prompts you to insert the disks in order. Despite the extra time involved, floppy disks remain a viable, low-tech solution that you may wish to use.
This guide walks you through this process using the following scenarios:
" Migrating to a new computer.
" Migrating to a new computer on your home network.
" Migrating to a new computer using a direct cable connection.
" Migrating to a clean installation of Windows XP.
When migrating files and settings for multiple computers in a corporate environment, administrators should use the User State Migration Tool, a command line tool. For more information, see the white paper, "User State Migration in Windows XP."

What Gets Migrated?
This section summarizes the types of files and settings that are migrated.
Migrated Settings
The settings fall into four major groups:
" Appearance. This includes items such as wallpaper, colors, sounds, and the location of the taskbar.
" Action. This includes items such as the key repeat rate, whether double-clicking a folder opens it in a new window or the same window, and whether you need to double-click or single-click an item to open it.
" Internet. These are the settings that let you connect to the Internet and control how your browser operates. This includes items such as your home page URL, favorites or bookmarks, cookies, security settings, dial-up connections, and proxy settings.
" Mail. This includes the information you need to connect to your mail server, your signature file, views, mail rules, local mail, and contacts. The mail clients supported are Outlook® and Outlook Express.
Application settings
The wizard currently supports migrating specific application settings including Microsoft Office (Access, Excel, Outlook®, PowerPoint®, and Word). Support for migrating additional applications will be included when Windows XP is released.
Note that only applications settings are migrated; actual applications are not migrated. You will need to re-install applications on your new computer.

Migrating to a New Computer on Your Home Network
A home network is a faster and simpler way to migrate your files and settings from your old computer to your new computer. This scenario assumes you have two computers-an old computer and a new computer-on a home network. This means that, before migrating, you will need to ensure that your new computer running Windows XP can "recognize" your old computer on the network. The old computer contains your current settings and files that you want have on your new computer.

Migrating to a Clean Installation Of Windows XP
This advanced scenario assumes you have only one computer and are going to perform a clean installation of Windows XP side-by-side with an existing installation of Windows. First, you need to complete a clean installation of Windows XP on your computer, at a different location on your hard drive than your current installation. (It is important you do not choose upgrade, but a clean installation.) You also want to be sure not to overwrite your old installation. The computer will need to be able to boot into either operating system. This scenario assumes that you have already completed this dual installation. For more information, see Multibooting with Windows 2000 and Windows XP at http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/administration/management/mltiboot.asp.

Summary
This guide walks you through the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard and explains all the steps needed to successfully use this powerful tool. The wizard streamlines the process of using a new computer by making it easy to duplicate your old computing environment and keep all your settings such as Favorites in Internet Explorer.
Copying your files is also made easier. Although uising a home network is the fastest way to copy files, 3.5 inch disks remain a viable option for many users who don't have a network at home.
Furthermore, the wizard can also be useful in a "lightly managed" corporate environments where users are expected to migrate their own files and settings without very much assistance from IT support professionals.
For large scale automated migrations, IT professionals should employ the User State Migration Tool, explained in the companion paper User State Migration in Windows XP at http://www.microsoft.com/TechNet/prodtechnol/winxppro/deploy/usermigr.asp.
