New computer

Question

I recently upgraded my computer and want to transfer my Organizer and PE 2020 infomation over to the new one without loosing any of the infomation. Is possible? Are there any special procedures for doing this transfer?

Use the backup and restore process described here to move your catalog and photo files on the new computer.

You don't state if you want to upgrade to PSE 2021 in the new computer.

If you want to install the existing PSE2020 on the new computer, be sure to have the installation files and your license key. You can retrieve them on your Adobe account if you have bought and downloaded them directly from Adobe.

If you install a new PSE2021 in the new computer, the restore process will recognize the catalog in the 2020 version and prompt you to 'convert' it to the 2021 format: do it.
