I have PE on my laptop and need to move it to a new laptop. I have moved the program, but am encountering problems with moving the catalog. I tried to do a full backup on the old laptop and a restore on the new laptop, but the files don't seem to match. The new laptop is looking for a Tally .tly file that I don't see in the backup files.
What am I doing wrong? Suggestions please.

The new laptop is looking for a Tally .tly file that I don't see in the backup files.
Generally that means that the backup did not run completely. The 'backup.tly' file is the last one to be written to the disk.
I tried to do a full backup on the old laptop and a restore on the new laptop, but the files don't seem to match.
All the files saved in the backup folder are renamed copies. The backup folder can't be used as a copy, it has to be 'restored',.
Would it be possible to do a new backup, waiting some time after the last message, to be sure everything is written?
The restore won't work if you don't have the backup.tly file in the backup folder.
