    Never used Pc transplant and have spent most of today learning how it works and getting it setup. One snag I'm running into is getting bookmarks and other settings from chrome on the old device to the new. I tried to use a2i creator but when I try to open it I get an error that says "you need to be an administrator to run this" which I am and no matter what I try it won't go.

    So I found an old a2i for firefox and tried to change that to chrome:

    a2i Info]
    Version=6.8

    [Applications]
    ;Check for installation of any version of Chrome by scanning the AppPath Directory in the Registry for known exe files
    EXE=chrome.exe
    Company=Google

    [0]
    Description=Google Chrome

    [0 Files]
    ;Migrate Chrome profiles folder files and subfolders under appdata\roaming for all profiles
    Flag=File
    Base=%MI_APPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\
    Values=*.*
    Flag=File
    Base=%MI_APPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\*
    Values=*.*

    ;Migrate Chrome profiles folder files and subfolders under appdata\local for all profiles
    Flag=File
    Base=%MI_LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\
    Values=*.*
    Flag=File
    Base=%MI_LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\*
    Values=*.*


    and it shows up under apps in pc transplant but in the logs it never shows it trying to capture those settings and on the deployment device the chrome settings are not there.

    Anyone have a2i file for chrome by chance? 8.5 ru4 btw

    I resolved this on my own by dropping the a2i file and instead just pointing at the localappdata folder for chrome to grab stuff that way, still learning how this tool works

    Which brings me to the fact could some maybe show this tool some love? Its actually really powerful and is going to come in very handy as we buy other hospitals but it really needs a coat of paint and maybe remove things that call out vista or winamp...yahoo messanger....
