Question asked on Nov 20, 2015

My older computer was on Windows 7.  My new one is Windows 10.  I am trying to transfer old email messages to the new computer using Export/Import.  It does not work.

I have transferred messages from one computer to another before and always had to move the messages in the new computer from "Imported Folder" to "Storage Folder, one folder at a time.  It no longer works.  I can export one folder at a time but when I do, I only get one message from the folder on the new computer.  I hope I am making myself clear.

Can I move the entire Live Mail with all subfolders from the old computer to the new one?  Will that work?  If so, should I delete the contents of the Live Mail folder on the new computer?
