Migrating to a new PC
When switching to a new computer, you most likely will want to move your copy of Atlantis (including all its files and settings) to the new computer as well. Here is how to proceed:
If your copy of Atlantis is non-portable:
- Connect a USB memory stick (or another removable drive) to your old computer.
- Launch Atlantis on the old computer and use the "Tools | Install as Portable..." menu command to install to the removable drive.
- Disconnect the removable drive from the old computer.
- Connect the removable drive to the new computer.
- Launch the "awp.exe" file from the home folder of Atlantis on the removable drive and use its "Tools | Install as Non-Portable..." menu command to install to the new computer.
If your copy of Atlantis is portable:
- Connect a USB memory stick (or another removable drive) to your old computer.
- Copy the entire home folder of the portable copy of Atlantis from the old computer to the removable drive using the file manager.
- Disconnect the removable drive from the old computer.
- Connect the removable drive to the new computer.
- Copy the home folder of the portable copy of Atlantis from the removable drive to a location of your choice on the new computer using the file manager.
Once Atlantis is up and running on the new computer, you may wish to uninstall Atlantis from the old computer and remove the temporary portable home folder of Atlantis from the removable drive.
