Migration Issue

[David T.]

Bob,

It’s been a while since I worked regularly on Windows machines, but HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/GSettings is a location in your registry, not a command. You need to copy the settings stored in that location and insert them into your new machine’s registry, I believe. Microsoft offers this infomation about copying registry keys: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755091.aspx <https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755091.aspx>

HTH,
David
