Free application> Windows Easy Transfer Companion is a Microsoft

corbomite

This is a beta application still, so its kinda experimental, and only for
Windows in English...
But its nice to see that there may be a way to transfer all your apps
without needing to reinstall them from scratch!

Windows Easy Transfer Companion is a Microsoft application that enables you
to automatically transfer your most important programs from your Windows
XP-based PC to your new Windows Vista-based PC.

The software will move more than 100 of the most popular programs, as well
as many others that you may have installed. You have complete control over
selecting which programs to transfer, so only the programs you care about
will move. The software will alert you if some programs may not be able to
transfer, or may not transfer with high confidence. Most security software
is not able to transfer due to technical reasons.
Easy Transfer Companion is designed to be used in addition to Windows Easy
Transfer-which is part of Windows Vista and automatically transfers your
data and settings.

Connecting your two computers can be done with either an Easy Transfer Cable
(available online, from retailers, and from PC manufacturers), or a home or
small business network. If using an Easy Transfer Cable, you must first
install Windows Easy Transfer on your Windows XP-based PC. By using Easy
Transfer and Easy Transfer Companion you will be able to quickly and easily
setup your new PC with all the data, settings, and programs that matter to
you, so you can be productive on your new PC right away.
Easy Transfer Companion only transfers programs from a Windows XP-based PC
to a Windows Vista-based PC. Easy Transfer Companion is currently in Beta,
and only available for the US market.
