Then I'd look closely at the restored DB to make sure everything is there and decide if I have a successful restore or a failure.Some experimentation on this might be required.) And then I'd do a restore from the backup on the External HD making sure the target folder structure on the new system match the folder structure on the old (I'm assuming you only need the high level folders, and that sub folders will be created as needed.I'd attach the external HD to the new computer.I'd then install ACDSee onto the new computer, duplicating the folder structure and and any options found on ACDSee on the old computer.(I admit I'm paranoid, but as a retired DBA, it was a survival skill and having a variety of backups allows for a full or partial disaster recovery from a variety of screw-ups! Also, I would not delete anything from the old computer either! That way I have source data too!) I would also do a separate, non ACDSee backup of all images on the old computer using a good zip utility.I would likely not include thumbnails because it would be faster and ACDSee can always generate new thumbnails. I would do a very complete database backup with images included from within ACDSee on the old computer.I've never done this though I look forward to doing it in a few weeks.
