Launch the Easy Transfer Utility on Both Computers
Easy Transfer is a Windows-based utility that allows two computers
to transfer files and settings from a computer running Windows XP or
Vista to another computer running Windows Vista. To use the utility,
plug the File Transfer Cable into the USB ports on both computers
and then start the utility on both computers.
• After launching the utility, just follow the on-screen instructions.
Note: Keep the following in mind when using the utility:
• You must launch Easy Transfer on both computers involved in the
transfer of files/settings so that they can detect each other
• Transfers can only be made from Windows XP/Vista to Windows
Vista; you cannot transfer files/settings from Vista to XP
Note: If this is a first-time transfer, follow the install steps above then
go to Step 1 in this section:
• When prompted to choose a transferring media, select USB cable
• On Windows Vista: Select Start Programs Prolific PCLinq3
• You can only transfer files/settings between operating systems
using the same language; for example, you can’t transfer files/
settings from a traditional Chinese system to an English system
• On Windows XP: Select Start Programs Prolific PCLinq3
Note: You will choose between Ansi and Unicode. Both computers
must use the same.
