📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses the challenge of migrating a large number of users’ documents, browser favorites, and credentials from old to new Windows PCs. The original poster seeks a straightforward method for transferring all data, including browsers like Edge, Chromium Edge, Chrome, and Firefox, especially as they plan to migrate at least 200 users and potentially to Azure. A respondent suggests using USMT (User State Migration Tool), noting it can handle most data but may not migrate stored credentials securely tied to individual user profiles.

Moving a users documents etc. from an old PC to a new one is quite simple but my tecs all tend to do this differently
and the results are mediocre.. https://snaptube.cam/ https://9apps.cam/

How do you get about easily migrating everything including browser favorites and credentials from mainly
Edge, Chromium Edge, Chrome and Firefox too? (we've ditched IE completely by now)

We're going to migrate at least 200 users to new PC's and perhaps soon some of them to Azure if we get it ready..

USMT should handle most if not all of that. If credentials are stored using the credential manager I don't believe you can migrate them since only a given user can interact with their saved credentials by design.
