HelloSo I recently got a new laptop and I want to know if I set up the new laptop as a new device can I still restore files from old pc later?

old PC files xfr to new PC

I have a new Dell PC. My old HP crashed. I'm trying to recover the data on the old PC. Any suggestions

 

restore older data to new Win10 PC

We'll soon be getting a new Windows 10 PC. Our old PC is 7 or 8 years old, running Windows XP. For restoring data the main concern is the Outlook data file. It is a huge file and XP does not seem to be capable of copying it to backup; neither does our
Acronis backup software. We have been backing it up with an old version of Windows NT Backup. Are we going to be able to restore this in Win 10 and is it compatible? Or, what are the options? Also wondering if the Acronis backups are going to be restorable.

 

Migrating to new pc and virtualize old pc

hello everyone,
I got a new pc and I wanted to "migrate" (do you say that? or clone?) the old pc on the new one.

The idea that I have based on my knowledge would be to have cloned the disk of the old pc to a vhd or vhdx file in the new pc and have a dual boot on vhd.

Also I would like to have a second vhd clone that I can use with a virtual machine at the same time as the new pc system.

I am aware that there is a "sysprep" command that prepares for a cloning on different hardware, besides I have seen that there is also a disk2vhd software that could help.

But I also noticed that macrium allows you to prepare a backup to be restored to new hardware. BUT I don't know how it works.

For the virtualization part I have an idea of a "virtual2phisical" software.

Obviously mine are just ideas that I don't know how to actualize in detail. Is anyone aware of a faster way?

Do you have any better suggestions for implementing this project?

Can you help me with the steps to take?

Thanks,
