Planning a move to a new Windows PC? The latest PCmover upgrade makes it even simpler to bring everything with you—apps, files, settings, and even saved Wi-Fi networks—so your new PC feels like home instantly. If you’re searching for the best PC migration software, look no further than Laplink's PCmover.

What’s New in the PCmover Upgrade (and Why You’ll Love It)

The new version of PCmover introduces powerful features that make transferring to a new computer faster, safer, and smarter:

    • Microsoft Store apps—automatically reinstalled
      No more hunting or re-downloading apps. PCmover detects your Store apps on the old PC and reinstalls them on the new one.

    • Smarter app selection tools
      Easily filter by app type (Store/Desktop), user, safety, listed/unlisted, or search by name. The handy “Deselect All” option makes customization quick.

    • Wi-Fi networks & password transfer
      PCmover securely moves saved SSIDs and credentials, so your new PC connects instantly—no sticky notes, no forgotten passwords.

    • Behind-the-scenes performance boost
      Improved app detection and streamlined processes ensure a smoother, more reliable migration.

Laplink's PCmover is the ultimate PC migration software for Windows 10 and 11 users who want speed and simplicity.

How PCmover Works (in 3 Simple Steps)

  1. Install PCmover on both PCs.
  2. Connect the machines via Wi-Fi/network or an optional Laplink transfer cable.
  3. Transfer using the step-by-step wizard; apps, profiles, files, and settings are exactly where you expect them.

With PCmover, you can transfer files from an old PC to new PC without losing data—and without the hassle of manual setup.
