-------------------------------------------- Getting ready for a new machine 2019.10.07 20:20:05 CEST -------------------------------------------- I have a new laptop arriving at the end of this week. If I'm lucky it will arrive before Friday, so I can manage to pick it up and have it during the weekend. If not, I'm only going to set it up next week. I don't know whether to just restore the backup from my current machine or take the opportunity to set it up from scratch. Or take a mixed approach - set the applications from scratch but retrieve the data from a backup. I feel I could automate this whole process, but how often do I go through this process? Probably maintaining the automation up-to-date would require more manual effort than manually running it once every now and then. What is your prefered method to setup new machines?
