When upgrading or changing computers, it's helpful to be able to transfer your existing database to the new computer. The EasyWorship Profile Transfer Tool was designed to make this process easy. Most customers use a flash drive (memory stick/USB drive) to transfer their database, but you can use a network server or cloud drive like Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive to transfer the database files.

Downloading the Profile Transfer Tool

Follow the steps below to download the Profile Transfer Tool and transfer your profile from one computer to another:

1. Make sure the EasyWorship program is closed. 
2. Connect the flash drive to the computer you are backing up from.
3. Download the Profile Transfer Tool. If the download doesn't begin, click here.
   
   
4. Drag and drop the EasyWorshipProfileTransfer.exe file from your download folder to the backup drive.

NOTE: Do not run the transfer tool from the Downloads folder on your computer. Make sure to transfer it over to the backup drive first, and then run the transfer tool. This ensures the Profile Export folder that will be created will be on your backup drive.
