The problem
A new PC shouldn't cost you a weekend
The files are the easy part. It's the dozens of apps, browser logins, Wi-Fi passwords and little settings that take days to put back.
Reinstall everything by hand
Hunting down the installer for every app, one by one, then trying to remember how each one was set up.
Logins and Wi-Fi left behind
Saved browser passwords and Wi-Fi keys stay on the old PC, so you spend the next week resetting passwords.
Copied apps that break
Many transfer tools copy Program Files across, which is how apps end up broken or asking for their licence again.
Tiny free tiers
Free editions that stop at a couple of gigabytes or leave apps out entirely, then push a pricey upgrade.
An account and a cloud detour
Built-in options want a Microsoft account and route your files through the cloud to get them across.
No way back
Something overwritten on the new PC? Most tools have no undo for what they changed.
Vow PC Migration Assistant fixes all of it.
How it works
Scan. Send. Restore.
Two clicks on each PC, and everything you ticked arrives checked and undoable.
- 01
Scan the old PC
Read-only: see every folder, Windows setting, Wi-Fi network, app and browser that can move, with sizes. Untick anything you'd rather leave behind.
Scan the old PC, or receive everything on the new one - 02
Send it across
Pick the new PC on your network and type the 8-character code it shows, or pack everything onto a USB drive instead.
...with the three steps and what moves across - 03
Restore, with undo
Apps install from their official source, browsers open with bookmarks and passwords, and History > Undo takes it all back if you change your mind.
Every move is listed here, and a restore can be undone
Features
Everything that makes a PC feel like yours
Built for upgrading to Windows 11, replacing a dead laptop or setting up a family member's new PC.
Apps reinstalled cleanly
Every app is installed fresh from its official source with Windows Package Manager, never copied out of Program Files.
Browsers with passwords
Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, Firefox and more, with bookmarks, history, extensions, tabs and saved passwords.
Wi-Fi networks and keys
Your Wi-Fi networks travel with their passwords, sealed with a transfer password only you know.
Windows, the way you set it
Desktop background, dark mode and accent, Explorer options, taskbar, mouse, keyboard, fonts and mapped drives.
All your files, no size limit
Desktop, Documents, Pictures and every other user folder, plus any folder you add, free with no cap.
Checked byte for byte
SHA-256 on every file, both when it's read on the old PC and when it's written on the new one.
Undo the whole move
One click in History removes what the restore added and brings back anything it replaced.
Encrypted, PC to PC
A one-time code pairs the two PCs on your home network, and everything travels encrypted with AES-256.
App settings too
VS Code, Notepad++, PuTTY, FileZilla, OBS scenes, Office signatures, Sticky Notes, Minecraft worlds and many more.
Picks up where it stopped
An interrupted pack, transfer or restore carries on with only what's still missing.
Light & dark theme

PC Migration comes with a crisp light theme and a calm dark theme. Switch with one click, or let it follow your Windows setting by itself. It remembers your choice.

FAQ
Questions about PC Migration
Is Vow PC Migration Assistant free?
Yes. Scanning and packing the whole old PC is free, and so is moving all your files, Windows settings, Wi-Fi networks and fonts, with no size limit. You can also move 3 apps or browsers a day free to see it working. Unlimited, a one-time $9.95 USD payment, moves every app, every browser profile and every app's settings in one go.
Does it copy my programs or reinstall them?
It reinstalls them. Each app is installed fresh from its official source with Windows Package Manager, then its settings are brought across. Program Files is never copied, which is what breaks apps moved by other tools. Paid suites such as Adobe or Microsoft 365 are listed with what to do, because they need you to sign in.
Will my saved browser passwords come across?
Yes, when you set a transfer password. Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera and other Chromium browsers have their passwords re-encrypted for the new PC, and Firefox profiles move as they are. Passwords that newer Chrome versions lock to the old PC are counted, and the app tells you to sign in to the browser's sync for those.
Do I need a cable, an account or the cloud?
No. The two PCs find each other on your home Wi-Fi or router and talk directly, encrypted. If they can't, use a USB drive, a folder or a network share instead. Nothing is uploaded and there is no account.
What if something goes wrong?
Every file is checked with SHA-256 on both PCs, interrupted moves resume where they stopped, and files already on the new PC are never overwritten by surprise: by default both copies are kept. History > Undo removes what the restore added and brings back what it replaced.
How is it different from PCmover or Todo PCTrans?
Laplink PCmover's Express edition moves no apps, and the free EaseUS Todo PCTrans stops at 2 GB and a few apps; both copy program files across. Vow moves all your files and settings free with no size cap, reinstalls apps cleanly from their official source, re-encrypts browser passwords for the new PC and costs $9.95 once.
What doesn't move?
Drivers and Windows' own components never move, and licence keys for paid apps can't be carried across, so apps that need signing in or a key are flagged with what to do. Printers are listed in the report so you can add them again.
Is it safe to install?
Yes. It is made and published by XTO Pty Ltd, an Australian company. It only reads the old PC and writes only your own files and settings on the new one, never Windows or Program Files. There are no ads or bundled software, it needs no administrator rights to install, and it uninstalls cleanly from Windows Settings.
