This article outlines the general process to follow to migrate files and settings.
## Step 1: Plan the migration
## Step 1: Download and install USMT
USMT is part of the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) and can be downloaded from the following link:
[Download and install the Windows ADK](/windows-hardware/get-started/adk-install)
Once the Windows ADK installer is downloaded, run the installer, and then in the **Select the features you want to install** page, make sure **User State Migration Tool (USMT)** is selected.
## Step 2: Plan the migration
1. [Plan The Migration](usmt-plan-your-migration.md). Depending on whether the migration scenario is refreshing or replacing computers, an online migration or an offline migration can be chosen. Offline migrations can use either Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) or the files in the **Windows.old** directory. For more information, see [Common Migration Scenarios](usmt-common-migration-scenarios.md).
