[Leica] New PC query

[Sonny Carter]

With only a few exceptions software has to be installed for a new computer, it can't be moved.  Same goes for most plugins.  I guess it sounded like I was recommending to move the user file intact to the new user file.  You can copy it to the desktop for access, but as I said before, I prefer to put it on an external drive to keep the new hard drive lean and clean.
