A company has 100 client computers that run Windows XP 64-bit Edition.
You are deploying new computers that run a 32-bit version of Windows B.
You need to transfer the contents of each user’s Documents folder to the new computer by
using the least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?
A.
Back up the folders by running the NTBackup command.
Then restore the backup to the new computer.
B.
Manually copy the folder content to a USB flash drive.
Then paste the files to the new computer.
C.
Use Windows Easy Transfer.
D.
Use the User State Migration Tool.
Explanation:
Great Lake Bunyip from Australia:
Windows Easy Transfer can’t transfer files from a 64-bit version of Windows to a 32-bit
version of Windows. If you’re transferring from a 64-bit version of Windows Vista to a 32-bit
version of Windows 7, you can move your files manually, or use Backup and Restore in
Windows Vista. For more information, see Back up your files and Restore a backup created
on a previous version of Windows on the Windows website. If you’re transferring from a 64bit
version of Windows XP, you’ll need to move your files manually.

Windows
Easy Transfer can transfer:
Files
and folders including photos, music, videos, documents, email messages and
contacts
User
accounts and user account settings
Application
configuration data files and settings
Several
Windows configuration settings stored in the registry
The program does not support transferring entire applications themselves and system files
such as fonts and drivers.
Really…manually go to 100 PCs and login with admin credentials on each one of them?
“You need to transfer the contents of each user’s Documents folder” Use USMT to copy the users’ documents (using scanstate) and then loadstate on the new PC.
You’re not migrating users’ settings.

Answer is B
You can migrate a 32-bit operating system to a 64-bit operating system. However, you cannot migrate a 64-bit operating system to a 32-bit operating system.
USMT does not support any of the Windows Server® operating systems, Windows 2000, or any of the starter editions for Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7. In addition, USMT only supports migration from Windows XP with Service Pack 3.
Neither USMT5 or Easy Transfer support 64 to 32 migration.
