PCmover Professional is the ONLY software that automatically moves your applications, files, settings, and even user profiles from an old PC to a new one, or old operating system to a new one. And because most transferred applications are installed ready-to-use on the new PC, there’s usually no need to find old CDs, previously downloaded programs, serial numbers or license codes.



PCmover Professional is a comprehensive software developed by Laplink Software Inc. It enables users to migrate their data, applications, and settings from an old computer to a new one with ease. Whether you are upgrading to a new PC or replacing a faulty one, it offers a simple and efficient way to transfer everything you need to ensure a smooth transition.

PCmover PRO is the easiest way to restore or move to a new PC without leaving anything behind, even when there are different versions of Windows on the old and new PC. Nothing is changed on the old PC and nothing is overwritten on the new PC.

Applications may require a re-entry of a license code or re-activating on the new PC. Certain system settings and applications may not be transferred due to their incompatibility with the operating system on the new PC. Download Now!

What you should know

Compatibility with Older Programs: It's essential to note that certain programs on your old PC may not be compatible with a newer operating system. Be prepared to encounter issues with older software when migrating to a new PC.

Deactivation and Reactivation of DRM Files: Files with Digital Rights Management (DRM), such as music files and programs requiring keys or serial numbers tied to a hardware fingerprint, may require deactivation on the old PC and reactivation on the new PC. Ensure you follow the necessary steps to transfer and reactivate DRM-protected content.

Unique Copy Protection: Programs with unique copy protection mechanisms might need to be deactivated on the old PC before reactivation with their original key or serial number on the new PC. Contact the software manufacturer for each application if you encounter any issues during the deactivation and reactivation process.

End User License Agreements: It's crucial to adhere to the end user license agreements for each application you transfer using PCmover Professional. Make sure you comply with the terms and conditions outlined by the software developers.

Removal of Trial Software: If you have a full version of a software program on your old PC, it is recommended to remove any trial versions of the same software on the new PC. This ensures a clean and optimal installation of the licensed software.

Exclusion of Antivirus and Anti-Spyware Programs: The app does not migrate antivirus and anti-spyware programs to your new PC. You will need to install and set up these programs separately on the new computer.

Hardware Driver Exclusion: Specific hardware drivers will not be moved to your new PC through PCmover. Ensure you have the necessary drivers for your hardware devices ready for installation on the new computer.

Operating System Compatibility: The app is not intended for migrations from newer operating systems to older operating systems. It is not recommended to migrate from a PC running Windows 7 to a PC running Windows XP, as this may result in system instability.

Apply Windows Updates: Before initiating a migration with the program, it is important to apply all appropriate Windows Updates, including updates for the .NET framework, on your new PC. This helps ensure a smooth and stable migration process.

Unique Serial Numbers: The serial numbers are specific to PCmover Professional and are not compatible with other editions of PCmover. Make sure you use the correct serial number for the app during installation and activation.
