## <a href="" id="bkmk-planmig"></a>Step One: Plan Your Migration
1. [Plan Your Migration](plan-your-migration-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md). Depending on whether your migration scenario is refreshing or replacing computers, you can choose an online migration or an offline migration using Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) or the files in the Windows.old directory. For more information, see [Common Migration Scenarios](common-migration-scenarios-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md).

For more information, see [Common Migration Scenarios](usmt-common-migration-scenarios.md).
2. [Determine What to Migrate](determine-what-to-migrate-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md). Data you might consider migrating includes end-user information, applications settings, operating-system settings, files, folders, and registry keys.
2. [Determine What to Migrate](usmt-determine-what-to-migrate.md). Data you might consider migrating includes end-user information, applications settings, operating-system settings, files, folders, and registry keys.
3. Determine where to store data. Depending on the size of your migration store, you can store the data remotely, locally in a hard-link migration store or on a local external storage device, or directly on the destination computer. For more information, see [Choose a Migration Store Type](choose-a-migration-store-type-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md).

5. Modify copies of the Migration.xml and MigDocs.xml files and create custom .xml files, if it is required. To modify the migration behavior, such as migrating the **Documents** folder but not the **Music** folder, you can create a custom .xml file or modify the rules in the existing migration .xml files. The document finder, or **MigXmlHelper.GenerateDocPatterns** helper function, can be used to automatically find user documents on a computer without creating extensive custom migration .xml files.

6. Create a [Config.xml File](configxml-file-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md) if you want to exclude any components from the migration. To create this file, use the [ScanState Syntax](scanstate-syntax-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md) option together with the other .xml files when you use the **ScanState** command. For example, the following command creates a Config.xml file by using the MigDocs and MigApp.xml files:

4. Run the **LoadState** command on the destination computer. Specify the same set of .xml files that you specified when you used the **ScanState** command. However, you do not have to specify the Config.xml file, unless you want to exclude some of the files and settings that you migrated to the store. For example, you might want to migrate the My Documents folder to the store, but not to the destination computer. To do this, modify the Config.xml file and specify the updated file by using the **LoadState** command.

**Note**  
We recommend that you create a separate .xml file instead of adding your script to the **MigApp.xml** file. This is because the **MigApp.xml** file is a very large file and it will be difficult to read and edit. In addition, if you reinstall USMT for some reason, the **MigApp.xml** file will be overwritten by the default version of the file and you will lose your customized version.

## <a href="" id="bkmk-step5"></a>Step 5: Test the application settings migration
On a test computer, install the operating system that will be installed on the destination computers. For example, if you are planning on migrating from Windows 7 to Windows 10, install Windows 10 and the application. Next, run LoadState on the test computer and verify that all settings migrate. Make corrections if necessary and repeat the process until all the necessary settings are migrated correctly.
To speed up the time it takes to collect and migrate the data, you can migrate only one user at a time, and you can exclude all other components from the migration except the application that you are testing. To specify only User1 in the migration, type: **/ue:\*\\\* /ui:user1**. For more information, see [Exclude Files and Settings](exclude-files-and-settings-usmt.md) and User options in the [ScanState Syntax](scanstate-syntax-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md) topic. To troubleshoot a problem, check the progress log, and the ScanState and LoadState logs, which contain warnings and errors that may point to problems with the migration.

A hard-link migration store functions as a map that defines how a collection of bits on the hard disk are “wired” into the file system. You use the new USMT hard-link migration store in the PC Refresh scenario only. This is because the hard-link migration store is maintained on the local computer while the old operating system is removed and the new operating system is installed. Using a hard-link migration store saves network bandwidth and minimizes the server use needed to accomplish the migration.
You use a command-line option,**/hardlink** , to create a hard-link migration store, which functions the same as an uncompressed migration store. Files are not duplicated on the local computer when user state is captured, nor are they duplicated when user state is restored.

The Config.xml file is the configuration file created by the `/genconfig` option of the ScanState tool; it can be used to modify which operating-system components are migrated by USMT. The Config.xml file can be used in conjunction with other XML files, such as in the following example: `scanstate /i:migapps.xml /i:migdocs.xml /genconfig:c:\myFolder\config.xml`. When used this way, the Config.xml file tightly controls aspects of the migration, including user profiles, data, and settings, without modifying or creating other XML files.

When you encounter a problem or error message during migration, you can use the following general guidelines to help determine the source of the problem:
- Examine the ScanState, LoadState, and UsmtUtils logs to obtain the exact USMT error messages and Windows® application programming interface (API) error messages. For more information about USMT return codes and error messages, see [Return Codes](return-codes-usmt-win8.md).

In most cases, the ScanState and LoadState logs indicate why a USMT migration is failing. We recommend that you use the **/v***:5* option when testing your migration.

You should create and modify this file if you want to exclude certain components from the migration. In addition, you must create and modify this file if you want to exclude any of the operating system settings from being migrated. The Config.xml file format is different from that of the migration .xml files because it does not contain any migration rules. It contains only a list of the operating system components, applications, and the user documents that can be migrated. For an example, see the [Config.xml File](configxml-file-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md) topic. For this reason, excluding components using this file is easier than modifying the migration .xml files because you do not need to be familiar with the migration rules and syntax.

For this reason, excluding components using this file is easier than modifying the migration .xml files because you do not need to be familiar with the migration rules and syntax. However, you cannot use wildcard characters in a Config.xml file.
If you want to include all of the default components, you do not need to create the Config.xml file. Alternatively, if you are satisfied with the default migration behavior defined in the MigApp.xml, MigDocs.xml, and MigUser.xml files, and you want to exclude only some components, you can create and modify a Config.xml file and leave the other .xml files in their original state.
When you run the **ScanState** command with the **/genconfig** option, **ScanState** reads the other .xml files that you specify using the **/i** option to create a custom list of components that can be migrated from the computer. This file will contain only operating system components, applications, and the user document sections that are in both of the .xml files and that are installed on the computer when you run the **ScanState** command with the **/genconfig** option. Therefore, you should create this file on a source computer that contains all of the components, applications, and settings that will be present on the destination computers. This will ensure that this file contains every component that can be migrated. The components are organized into sections: &lt;Applications&gt;, &lt;WindowsComponents&gt;, and &lt;Documents&gt;. To choose not to migrate a component, change its entry to `migrate="no"`.
After you create this file, you need to specify it only with the **ScanState** command using the **/Config** option for it to affect the migration. However, if you want to exclude additional data that you migrated to the store, modify the Config.xml file and specify the updated file with the **LoadState** command. For example, if you collected the My Documents folder in the store, but you decide that you do not want to migrate the My Documents folder to a destination computer, you can modify the Config.xml file to indicate `migrate="no"` before you run the **LoadState** command, and the file will not be migrated. For more information about the precedence that takes place when excluding data, see the [Exclude Files and Settings](exclude-files-and-settings-usmt.md) topic.

# Determine What to Migrate
By default, User State Migration Tool (USMT) 10.0 migrates the items listed in [What Does USMT Migrate?](what-does-usmt-migrate-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md), depending on the migration .xml files you specify. These default settings are often enough for a basic migration.
By default, User State Migration Tool (USMT) 10.0 migrates the items listed in [What Does USMT Migrate?](usmt-what-does-usmt-migrate.md), depending on the migration .xml files you specify. These default settings are often enough for a basic migration.
However, when considering what settings to migrate, you should also consider what settings you would like the user to be able to configure, if any, and what settings you would like to standardize. Many organizations use their migration as an opportunity to create and begin enforcing a better-managed environment. Some of the settings that users can configure on unmanaged computers prior to the migration can be locked on the new, managed computers. For example, standard wallpaper, Internet Explorer security settings, and desktop configuration are some of the items you can choose to standardize.

# Exclude Files and Settings
When you specify the migration .xml files, MigApp.xml, Migdocs, and MigUser.xml, the User State Migration Tool (USMT) 10.0 migrates the settings and components listed, as discussed in [What Does USMT Migrate?](what-does-usmt-migrate-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md) You can create a custom .xml file to further specify what to include or exclude in the migration. In addition you can create a Config.xml file to exclude an entire component from a migration. You cannot, however, exclude users by using the migration .xml files or the Config.xml file. The only way to specify which users to include and exclude is by using the User options on the command line in the ScanState tool. For more information, see [ScanState Syntax](scanstate-syntax-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md).

The migration .xml files, MigApp.xml, MigDocs, and MigUser.xml, contain the &lt;component&gt; element, which typically represents a self-contained component or an application such as Microsoft® Office Outlook® and Word. To exclude the files and registry settings that are associated with these components, use the &lt;include&gt; and &lt;exclude&gt; elements. For example, you can use these elements to migrate all files and settings with pattern X except files and settings with pattern Y, where Y is more specific than X.

If you specify an &lt;exclude&gt; rule, always specify a corresponding &lt;include&gt; rule.

# Identify Applications Settings
When planning for your migration, you should identify which applications and settings you want to migrate. For more information about how to create a custom .xml file to migrate the settings of another application, see [Customize USMT XML Files](customize-usmt-xml-files-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md).

You should migrate any settings that users need to get their jobs done, those that make the work environment comfortable, and those that will reduce help-desk calls after the migration. Although it is easy to dismiss migrating user preferences, you should consider that users can spend a significant amount of time restoring items such as wallpaper, screen savers, and other customizable user-interface features. Most users do not remember how these settings were applied. Although these items are not critical to migration success, migrating these items increases user productivity and overall satisfaction of the migration process.

# Identify Users
It is important to carefully consider how you plan to migrate users. By default, all users are migrated by User State Migration Tool (USMT) 5.0. You must specify which users to include by using the command line. You cannot specify users in the .xml files. For instructions on how to migrate users, see [Migrate User Accounts](migrate-user-accounts-usmt.md).

# Include Files and Settings
When you specify the migration .xml files, User State Migration Tool (USMT) 10.0 migrates the settings and components specified in [What Does USMT Migrate?](what-does-usmt-migrate-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md) To include additional files and settings, we recommend that you create a custom .xml file and then include this file when using both the ScanState and LoadState commands. By creating a custom .xml file, you can keep your changes separate from the default .xml files, which makes it easier to track your modifications.

# User State Migration Tool (USMT) Overview
You can use User State Migration Tool (USMT) 10.0 to streamline and simplify user state migration during large deployments of Windows operating systems. USMT captures user accounts, user files, operating system settings, and application settings, and then migrates them to a new Windows installation. You can use USMT for both PC replacement and PC refresh migrations. For more information, see [Common Migration Scenarios](common-migration-scenarios-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md).

You can use USMT for both PC replacement and PC refresh migrations. For more information, see [Common Migration Scenarios](usmt-common-migration-scenarios.md).
USMT enables you to do the following:
- Configure your migration according to your business needs by using the migration rule (.xml) files to control exactly which files and settings are migrated and how they are migrated. For more information about how to modify these files, see [USMT XML Reference](usmt-xml-reference-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md).
- Configure your migration according to your business needs by using the migration rule (.xml) files to control exactly which files and settings are migrated and how they are migrated. For more information about how to modify these files, see [USMT XML Reference](usmt-xml-reference.md).
- Fit your customized migration into your automated deployment process by using the ScanState and LoadState tools, which control collecting and restoring the user files and settings. For more information, see [User State Migration Tool (USMT) Command-line Syntax](user-state-migration-tool--usmt--command-line-syntax.md).
- Fit your customized migration into your automated deployment process by using the ScanState and LoadState tools, which control collecting and restoring the user files and settings. For more information, see [User State Migration Tool (USMT) Command-line Syntax](usmt-command-line-syntax.md).
- Perform offline migrations. You can run migrations offline by using the ScanState command in Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) or you can perform migrations from previous installations of Windows contained in Windows.old directories. For more information about migration types, see [Choose a Migration Store Type](choose-a-migration-store-type-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md) and [Offline Migration Reference](offline-migration-reference.md).

- If you encrypt the migration store, you will be required to enter an encryption key or a path to a file containing the encryption key. Be sure to make note of the key or the key file location, because this information is not kept anywhere in the migration store. You will need this information when you run the LoadState command to decrypt the migration store, or if you need to run the recovery utility. An incorrect or missing key or key file results in an error message.

Always test your migration plan in a controlled laboratory setting before you deploy it to your entire organization. In your test environment, you need at least one computer for each type of operating system from which you are migrating data.
After you have thoroughly tested the entire migration process on a single computer running each of your source operating systems, conduct a pilot migration with a small group of users. After migrating a few typical user states to the intermediate store, note the space required and adjust your initial calculations accordingly. For details about estimating the space needed for your migration, see [Estimate Migration Store Size](estimate-migration-store-size-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md). You might also need to adjust the registry-setting and file-location information in your migration-rule files. If you make changes, test the migration again. Then verify that all data and settings have migrated as expected. A pilot migration also gives you an opportunity to test your space estimates for the intermediate store.

In most cases, the ScanState and LoadState logs indicate why a USMT migration is failing. We recommend that you use the **/v***:5* option when testing your migration. This verbosity level can be adjusted in a production migration. Reducing the verbosity level might make it more difficult to diagnose failures that are encountered during production migrations. You can use a higher verbosity level if you want the log files output to go to a debugger.

The default behavior for files is for the source file to be renamed to "OriginalFileName(1).OriginalExtension". This element specifies only what should be done when a collision occurs. It does not include objects. Therefore, for your objects to migrate, you must specify &lt;include&gt; rules along with the &lt;merge&gt; element. When an object is processed and a collision is detected, USMT will select the most specific merge rule and apply it to resolve the conflict. For example, if you have a &lt;merge&gt; rule C:\\\* \[\*\] set to &lt;sourcePriority&gt; and a &lt;merge&gt; rule C:\\subfolder\\\* \[\*\] set to &lt;destinationPriority&gt;, then USMT would use the &lt;destinationPriority&gt; rule because it is the more specific.
For an example of this element, see [Conflicts and Precedence](conflicts-and-precedence-usmt-win7-usmt-win8.md).
