Explanation:
Windows Easy Transfer
Windows Easy Transfer is a utility that comes with Windows 7 that you can use to transfer user
profile data from computers running Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7 to new computers
running Windows 7. Windows Easy Transfer can be used to transfer user accounts, documents,
music, pictures, e-mail, bookmarks, certificates, and other data.
External Hard Disk or USB Flash Drive
You can specify an attached external hard disk or USB flash drive. It is also possible to specify an
internal hard disk drive or network share when using this method. You can perform a side-by-side
migration as well as a wipe-and-restore migration using this method. You protect your data by
entering a password on the source computer that you must again enter before importing the data
on the destination computer.
