New Compuer, how to move?

So I finally got a new system. IT performed fresh installs of 19 and 20. I personally have spent years tweaking settings and defaults, etc and despise the idea of starting from scratch.  Can I use Migration Wizard and grab from my old system still on the server, or is there just a list of files I should grab and drag over. Posts, machine def, control defs are a given, but what about all my tool lists, toolpath defaults, mastercam defaults? not sure what to do here? Part of me wants to use this opportunity to clean up some clutter that has transitioned through version upgrades over the years but dam I need to atleast have my workflow how I'm use too

I know this doesn't answer your question... but I like the last line of your paragraph.

I like the idea of starting with a fresh platform with Mastercam exactly the way it is intended to be for that release.

I always wonder what my old settings through migration might be covering up.

No migration for me.

I make fresh RMB and QAT for every release. I only migrate machines, control and tools using the migration wizard. I use the update posts chook for posts. I do the same thing for new systems. I have backs up of files going all the way back to V9 an some files going all the way back to 1995 for other work I did, but Mastercam and migration of workspace and RMB have been trouble issues so burn me one shame on you burn me twice shame on me.
