Posted February 27, 201311 yr FPCH Admin I am trying to move all my stuff to a different computer using the badly mis-named "easy" transfer - so far very step has been excruciating. I'm at what I thought was the last step - loading the data from an external hard drive into the destination computer. The drives on the destination machine had been cleared by my son, so it is "virgin". But at this last stage I get to a prompt in Easy Transfer that requires me to create new user names (or to re-use the previous ones) for the two accounts we had previously. But whatever I put in, including the old names, it just says "error creating user": the only account name it will accept is my son's old name, and I can only use this once. But without giving names to both the old users it won't let me move on. There is absolutely no help available in Easy Transfer and hence no clue whatever as to what actually is wrong or how I can correct it. HELP! View this thread Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
