I'm seeing lots of discussions about transferring to Macs but haven't found much on Windows. What's the best way to transfer everything from my old Windows system to my new Windows computer?

Thanks all.

Thanks!! I can't help but wonder why Adobe doesn't just give users a backup/restore option for everything.
