Windows Vista provides an easy way to move your files, settings, and applications from one computer to another. ..
If you have a Windows 7 64-bit machine, you can copy over the folder that contains the Windows Easy Transfer program to a USB stick and then run it on Windows 10.
If you do not have access to a Windows 7 64-bit machine, I copied the folder and zipped it up, which you can download from here. If you have 32-bit Windows 7, run the preinstalled 32-bit version on the Windows 7 machine, but download the 64-bit version on Windows 10. It can import a 32-bit version of an Easy Transfer file. Simply uncompress the folder and run migwiz.exe.

To transfer files from your old computer to your new computer, you will need to use a Windows Easy Transfer key. This key will help you move files quickly and easily.
To start the Windows Easy Transfer wizard, go to your new Windows machine and open the Windows Easy Transfer wizard.

C:\Windows\System32\WET Once you’ve downloaded the WET, you’ll need to extract it to a folder on your computer. To do this, open the WET folder and double-click on the Setup.exe file. This will start the installation process. During the installation, you’ll be asked to choose which version of Windows 7 you want to install WET onto. If you have a 64-bit version of Windows 7, choose the 64-bit option and click Next. If you have a 32-bit version of Windows 7, choose the 32-bit option and click Next. After clicking Next, you’ll be asked to choose where you want to install WET. You can either install it on your C drive or on another drive that’s connected to your computer. Click Next and then Finish after making your selection. ..

You can customize the size of your folders by clicking on the Customize link. You can uncheck specific folders if you don’t want to transfer everything like Music or Videos, etc. If you click on the Advanced link here, you will get a Explorer dialog where you can check and uncheck specific folders under each of the main folders.

That’s pretty much it. Click on Transfer and your files and settings will be transferred over! The most important thing here is the App Settings, which is really useful if you installed some heavy-duty programs on your computer like MS Office, customized them, and now have to reinstall them on Windows 10. If you transfer the settings using the Easy Transfer wizard, you can install the app on Windows 10 and retain all those settings and customizations.
