Iomega Corporation, a global leader in reliable portable data storage, today began offering a free downloadable utility to Microsoft® Windows® users that streamlines the movement of their files, application settings and system settings to new PCs featuring the Windows XP operating system.
The Iomega utility, available today at www.iomega.com, guides the user through a simple data migration process using Iomega® Active Disk technology, the Microsoft Files and Settings Transfer Wizard and Iomega Zip® disks. This complete migration solution takes a snapshot of the user's personalized work environment and stores that snapshot on Iomega Zip disks for transfer to the user's new computer. The result is a convenient two-step migration to new Windows XP computers, preserving the user's application data, Internet and e-mail settings, font and folder options and other Windows settings.
