Re installing QuickCAM pro and VR5 on a Windows 11 PC

As part of the security upgrades for PCs and our network we are transferring over to new PCs running Windows 11.

The IT bods have installed QuickCAM Pro and VR5 milling but I am in the middle of cutting F1 in schools cars on the old set-up and wondered if we could copy across any and all config/set-up files to ensure the new PC mirrors the way we have the router configured currently on the old Windows 10 PC?

If anyone is aware of what files/folders need to be copied across I would appreciate the help.

Our router is an Old Denford Microrouter Pro (pre-2600) that we will hopefully update as some juncture!

Regards,

Ant

Hi Ant,

The only files you will need to copy across are the Offsets/Tools. Open the Offsets/Tools and a new menu will appear on the top bar called Offsets / Tooling. Click this and Click backup, once you click ok to the first backup it will give an option to Backup file to another drive, click Yes and select a USB stick. these can now be restored on your new computer by clicking the Restore button and click on the USB stick picture.
