Can I migrate only software with Universal Restore?

Thread needs solution

Apologies if the following is posted to the wrong forum, and I invite the moderator to put my request in the right place.

I want to migrate software, and their related settings, from a Windows 7 machine to a new machine running Windows 10. So I don't want to move a true image, I just want my software running on another machine with a different operating system.

I have read several threads in Acronis forums concerning Acronis Universal Restore, and this seems to be applicable only when you want to migrate the entire old system and software into a new hardware environment.

If my impression is correct, can you confirm that no Acronis product will achieve the limited type of migration that I need? Thanks in advance.

Theordore, sorry no Acronis software can do what you are asking to do here.

See KB 19296: Acronis products cannot be used to transfer applications to different system or upgrade OS which explains what can and cannot be done.

Thanks for the confirmation, Steve. I've been a happy Acronis user for more than 10 years, and was just hoping that AUR might save me buying LapLink PCMover (sigh)! Cheers!
