· You can transfer all or none of your files. You do not have an option to select certain files to transfer. If you wish to do that, then do so manually. You can transfer all or none of your installed apps. Some people elect to download fresh installations instead.
· The old computer's operating system will not be transferred. No data from the old computer is erased.
