How Do I Move MC From One PC to Another PC Without Losing "Playlists"/etc?

(1/2) > >>

ballen:
I need to move my registered copy of MC to another PC without losing my "playlists/cover art".

My existing copy of MC is on a W7 PC and I'm retiring the hardware to move on to a more modern W10 PC.  I've always made "Library Backups".

One of my concerns is that all of my music currently resides on a W7 partition (D:\Music) which is not available on W10.  My current W7 "Data" folder resides on the default C: partition containing my "playlists/cover art/library backups". 

On my W10 PC, I can't use D: as that partition is a system partition.  I had to create a partition on E: for my music and other material.  How can I copy everything over and not lose anything as this would be a major hassle for the large amount music/playlists I've accrued over time.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

The wiki has a topic on Moving Files .

Jim,

Thanks for replying but that wiki is regarding "moving files" within one machine. 

I need assistance in setting up MC on a completely different PC without losing any of my "playlists/cover art/MC backups.

JimH:
Some of it applies.
