    Easy File Transfer asked me for a Password which I never entered.


    I guessed and guessed but no luck.

    I finally clicked on cancel and the Transfer immediately finished.

    The new PC appears to be complete EXCEPT any Passwords from the old System appear to be gone.

    Is there a way to discover the Password it was looking for and just transfer that file?

    The actual transfer to the new PC from the external USB-3 drive took over 6 hours.

    Best regards,

    Will Easy File Transfer "merge" multiple Easy File Transfer files?

    If so, does it skip duplicate files as it merges?
