How to copy V26 files to V30?

[Podunk]

I recently bought a new laptop.Bought V30 and had it licensed on that computer. Then I had licensed V26 and V27 transferred from old computer to new computer. Tech told me all my old files would come with the transfer. Some did most did not. How can I get these old files on the new computer V30 ?

Probably the simplest way would be to just copy the files on to a Flash Drive and use the drive to transfer the files to the new computer and save them to the required locations, however that is pretty labour intensive and could take some time if you are going to be saving lots of different files to different locations.

It would be much quicker if you can set up a small network with the old and new computers and then it would be much easier to move files from the old computer to the new one as you can send the folders containing files straight to any desired location on the new computer.

If you are not sure how to do that your local computer shop would be able to do it for you quite quickly and easily and it shouldn`t cost too much

...maybe you already know this easy trick ......you can find all your old Files by just Typing in Windows "Search" box with wild card (*) and the extension (*.bbcd ) (*.dxf) (*.iges) (*.txt) etc etc

If you were using the default folders for storage most of the files saved from BobCAD should be in
C:\BobCAD-CAM Data\BobCAD-CAM V26
and
C:\BobCAD-CAM Data\BobCAD-CAM V28,
post processors etc. will all be in there too in the relevant sub-folders
