How best to migrate Apps & Data from Win10 PC to new Win11 PC
Would appreciate advice for my options with this migration. Thanks
Hi, if this is your personal computer, it is recommended to make a copy of the files in OneDrive - for your Microsoft account, you will have synchronization with the new computer after logging in to OneDrive.
If you have an application from the Microsoft store, if you log in with the same account, then all applications can be installed on a new computer
Thank you for your prompt advice.
And that method will work from Win 10 to Win 11?

- Yes, of course - you can download applications from the Microsoft store associated with your account up to 6 computers - this is most often - check in the Microsoft store.
Good luckIs it possible to migrate non-Microsoft apps from one laptop to another? (maybe by transferring them via a thumb-drive or something similar)?
No, it's best to download and install on a second computer directly from the Microsoft Store, or from the app developer's website, once you log in, everything will sync on the second computer, of course, you can move the files to an external drive
