I was completely puzzled after that third guess...
Luckily I found the two missing letters in my fourth try

Whenever I look at these threads, all I see are a bunch of empty squares. Is that what it is supposed to be, or do I need to change a setting?

So now I will experiment with a Refurbished Computer from eBay.
It's on the way.
My plans for moving the contents of this machine to the other one
- Use an External USB Drive
- On This machine, open a Command Line window
- In that window do this...
G:
CD \
MD WHATEVER
CD \
C:
CD \
XCOPY C: G:\WHATEVER /Q
The two switches I'm wondering about are...
/K Copies attributes. Normal Xcopy will reset read-only attributes.
/J Copies using unbuffered I/O. Recommended for very large files.
Seems like the "/K" switch would be the smart thing to do.
As for the "/J" switch; I just don't know for sure.
I probably haven't done this command in the past ten years, so I could be easily missing some important details
Observations and/or Suggestions on this plan are welcome and invited

I would make a backup of the old drive (AOMEI Backupper, again) and either copy the backup file to the new drive, or to the USB.
You can then either restore it to a new partition, or mount the backup as a virtual drive and copy and paste what you want where you want.
XCOPY tends to fail if it can't copy a single file because it's in use, or hidden, or not yours, or ... just to be annoying sometimes and you won't necessarily now what files have copied OK.
A backup will retain attributes and creating / modification dates as well.

Hold it, I think that you, OriginalGriff, were thinking something similar but not identical, and I came across This...
AOMEI Partition Assistant Standard
Have you (or anyone else reading this) used AOMEI Partition Assistant Standard ?
This looks like exactly what I want to do.
i.e., I will be able to look and choose which previous files I want on my new machine, but the apps won't be active or automatically loaded into weird places of which I'm not aware
(None dare call those things MalWare)
This really looks astounding.

I've used it to "flex" partitions and make them bigger or smaller as needed - and it's worked beautifully for that.
But I've not used it's "disk copy" functions at all.

Looked at it some more.
Decided to take your original advice and used the AOMEI BackUpper (I think I spelled it okay)
So, thanks for the suggestion. Good stuff.
I'm still lusting after that Partition Assistant Standard.
It's probably just a little bit too hi-tech for me at the moment; as, the last time I fiddled with individual disk sectors, the concept of "A Gigabyte" was firmly the domain of science fiction writers.

Have you thought of using Clonezilla? Very useful, very easy to use, and very free. Backs up a complete HD byte for byte including sectors not normally accessible to either a file or clones to another HD.

Never even heard the word before you put it on my screen for me.
Wow !
Thanks !
Good Stuff !

Glad to be able to help. Itβs my go to software for disk cloning/backup of a working system. If you use βbeginner modeβ itβs very straight forward to use. Iβve never needed any of the more advanced options

Looks like "...AOMEI Backupper..." wins the blue medal for the immediate moment.
He did the backup in less than 18 hours.
I guess I'll learn about the restore stuff in the next day or two
Thanks for the suggestion. Worked here.
