I'm no computer guru but as I understand it, you can't really transfer installed
programs from one computer to another. There are programs claiming to do it but
I would be careful. Easeus leaps to mind. Many reports that this is a scam or
worse.
If you just want to transfer data files (docs, etc) there are many ways. A
network connection, cloud storage, thumb drive, temporarily install the laptop
drive in the desktop if it has a suitable slot. If you want to clone a disk,
Macrium Reflect or Minitool Shadow Maker are freebies. But again, I doubt you
could run programs from a clone in another computer.
I use older thrift shop computers and install SSDs that I clone, but these
replace the existing HD. If there's room, I use the SSD for the OS and convert
the HD to data storage.
