Where and how do I transfer files of my projects from my old computer to new?

Hi,

Just got a new laptop and don't know how to transfer my projects to the new computer. Can't find *.plan files?

On Chief, go to your Preferences (Edit / Preferences / Folders) and you can see the file path for all of your Chief folders. You should be able to just copy the .plan folders to a thumb drive and bring them over to your new computer. When I was setting up my new computer, I used https://www.zinstall.com/  to transfer all my files. It was fast and very easy to use.
