You don't NEED to copy the registry key. If you don't do it, you will have to do a few extra steps like pasting your license key and a few other setting. I have forgotten it or suffered a crash and it is not really a big deal. You would want to get any custom dictionaries which I never do, and back up the images folder in the program folder which I do since I have a ton of customizations The TBK file is the best solution IF it works and doesn't get corrupted -- Rick 7.4.4.2 Windows, 10, 0, 14393 Current version is 7.1 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

This works only if you have the same directory structure and disk names. Another way is to use the internal backup function (under Tools) and create a .tbk file. Move this file to a removable disk. On the new computer, downlaod and install TB!. It will ask you whether you want to restore and create a new (first) account. Choose "restore" and point to that file (of course you would need to either copy the .tbk file onto the new computer first or keep the external hard drive connected.)

Upgrading System: How to Transfer TB from Old Computer to New?
Hi TBUD Listers, I'm upgrading from my old computer to a new one. Wanting to start with a new registry, I have reinstalled my major programs onto the new system, then, using an Iomega Zip Drive, have transfered data from the old box to the new. Everything but my attempts to move TB has gone well. I'm using version 1.45 of TB and don't have a clean zipped download anymore, only my expanded and installed working program. I can move everything in TB, including all my folders and filters, from the old machine to the new, but I can't make TB run in anything but its original prsistine congfiguration, in which it informs me that this is a trial version (I'm a registered paid-up user), and which won't read -- or can't find -- any of my folders. I'm going a little nutty. This is the single stumbling block left to me making the final transition to my new system. (Since TB is my e-mail client, and has all my many saved messages and filters in it, I am at the moment forced to use the old box -- at least if I want to get my e-mail in all its filtered, filed, and auto-responding glory.) How do I do this, friends?
