Re: Transfer Hoster from one laptop to another

When you say (Then delete Hoster from my current computer before I do anything to the new computer?)
Dont just delete it, you must uninstall while on line, this will free up your registation to allow registering your new computer.
If you just delete Hoster the records wont show it has been removed.
If your music files were originally on your C drive and now you want them on your external you might be better using the edit dialog and select the (my drive letter has changed option)
You may find it better to copy all your music files to the external before uninstalling, then use the edit my drive letter has changed again before uninstalling, then check Hoster runs from that drive ok.
Once you know that works create your backup, then uninstal.
Then when you restore it should know where all your files are.
