moving VVP and Startwatch to a new PC

Ive decided to move all my weather software to a dedicated computer. What’s the best way to move VVP and Startwatch?

Is the old computer running XP or Vista?

Both PC’s are running XP

  1. make a copy of your VirtualVP and StartWatch program folders.
  2. Use StartWatch’s Export setting features to save a copy of the StartWatch configuration.
  3. Install VirtualVP and StartWatch on the new computer (this will set up the Start menu shortcuts, etc.)
  4. Copy the contents of the VirtualVP folder you saved, into the VirtualVP folder on your new computer
  5. Copy the contents of the StartWatch folder you saved, into the StartWatch folder on your new computer
  6. Run VirtualVP and enter your registration info
  7. Run StartWatch and import the settings you exported from your old computer

That should do it. You need to reenter the VirtualVP registration because it’s stored in the registry. You don’t need to reenter StartWatch’s registration because it’s just stored in a file in the StartWatch folder.

Thanks for that.
