Why do you need secure file transfer software?

Secure file transfer

Data security now is a hot spot all over the world since there are many data attack events in recent years. More and more users start to focus on their data safety, especially for companies and giant enterprises.

Not all files can or need to be transferred by the Internet, sometimes, users also need to transfer data from one drive to another location to separate and classify data. This may remind you of the most traditional method: Copy & Paste.

In fact, this method is the most basic option when you want to move some normal small files or folders. If you wish to move some data files or folders from the User Profiles folders or move program files, Windows will proscribe the task. And even though you successfully move some of them, the relevant programs might not boot and run as normal because the system can find needed data from the original path.

Thus, if you need to move your files, folders, or even installed programs, you’d better turn to professional file transfers.

1. Move Folder

Before we start:
1. Please check if the target drive has sufficient free space to save all you move. If there’s a notice that tells you the space is insufficient, you need to extend drive space at first.
2. Please do not move or delete the files in the source and target directory, all settings will be modified by the tool.
3. This feature only runs between NTFS drives, if you want to move folders from or to a FAT32 drive, please convert to NTFS at first.

Step 1. Install and run AOMEI Partition Assistant, click “Free up” > “App Mover”.

After the move, if you regret it, you can restore all moved folders by clicking “Manage/Restore” in the window which shows the second step.

2. App Mover

If you wish to move program files, we suggest you directly move those programs by the “App Mover” feature to ensure that those programs can boot and run. It allows users to move numerous installed programs from one place to another, even to external disk, eliminating the need to reinstall them. The utility will modify all location information and ensure that your disk and system can find all necessary data files.

Step 1. In the feature options window, choose “App Mover” to continue.

Step 2. In the pop-up window, choose the partition that you want to free up via moving apps (here is partition C) and click “Next”.

Select partition

Step 3. In the window, all movable apps on the C drive will be listed. You can choose one or multiple apps that you need to move and the destination partition. Then click “Move” to execute the operation.

Tick apps

Step 4. Confirm that you have closed the apps that you will move from C drive to D drive. Then, click "OK".

OK

Step 5. Wait for the move process to complete. Then, click "Finish".

Then the move is finished. After the move, you can also run PC cleaner or "Delete Large Filles" to release more free space.
