So I use Animate for making sprite animations and such. My old computer decided to stop connecting to the internet because its old. I got a new computer and now need to find out how to get my work which is still in progress onto the new computer. I have an external harddrive I plan to put everything on. What should I take so that I can keep working on my project?

    Roughly speaking: Install the Creative Cloud Desktop App your new computer (I presume your have CC subscription)

    Download: Download Adobe Creative Cloud apps | Free Adobe Creative Cloud trial

    Instructions: How to download Creative Cloud desktop app

    Then after you've signed in and all that, install Animate CC from the Desktop App (and whatever else you desire)

    Use your external harddrive to transfer all files/folders that contain your Animate projects from your old to your new computer.

    It will be a bit more complicated if you want to transfer your user preferences to your new computer. For example if you self-defined a series of keyboard shortcuts in Animate and you like to continue using them. For this case we need to know your OS. Windows of MacOS ?
