[QUOTE="MacBiter, post: 1947872, member: 421638"] Do I understand that the 2019 is now like a factory reset, all the previous stuff on the old drive has now gone? If so, there's no 'transfer' involved - either you or your daughter would simply create a new admin account, and that's all that needs doing. The Application folder is independent of users, but new software needs to be done by an admin, so you'd need to create that account first and THEN add the program. [/QUOTE]
