What I do when I transfer to a new computer (I've done it a few times since I've been using BIAB), is as follows.

1. I copy my entire \bb and \Realband directories across to the new computer.

  • (This allows me to keep everything that I've collected over the years.)

2. Next I run the install program by right-clicking on it and selecting "Run as administrator". I use the latest version of BIAB, choose the minimum install and point the installation to my new \bb and \Realband.

  • (This installs Windows things like fonts and sets up the registry as needed for BIAB/RB.)

3. I start-up my new installation of BIAB and then point it to where Realdrums and Realtracks are located.

  • (Realtracks and Realdrums paths are set in "Options | Preferences | Realtracks" and "Options | Preferences | Realdrums".)

4. Next, I download the latest build from the link below and manually update the program.

5. Lastly, seeing the program is installed on a new computer, it will need to be activated within 30 days of first being run.

The above has always worked for me.

Noel
