New computer, New Elements version (2020), how should I transfer photo's and catalogue?

Question

Hello, I just bought a new computer and also an update from Photoshop Elements 12 to 2020. How should I bring photo's and catalogue to the new computer?

Just import the backup catalogue that I made

or

copy all the folders also (in explorer?)

Thank you very much!

Kind regards,

Mart

Use the PSE12 Organizer on the old computer:

File >> Backup

Use PSE 2020 on the new computer:

File >> Restore

Make a full backup using an external hard drive which is compatible with both computers, which will copy the entire catalog database and the media files.
