    I need to achieve the following with USMT 4:

    1. Backup up the following complete folder:
    a. On Windows XP – C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Audatex
    b. On Windows 7 – C:\ProgramData\Audatex
    2. Restore data to a default location (such as C:\temp\Audatex) on the new computer

    Can anyone help me to achieve this?

    Why not just use robocopy to complete the task prior to the USMT scan / restore process?

    you will need to have a script to initiate the scan and restore process anyway!

    Not everything needs to be done using USMT, there are a lots of other ways to do it....

    Hi,

    I agree with LtFrankDrebin, using other ways such as robocopy can also achieve the goal.

    Besides, I would like to share some sample for how to customize the USMT files for your reference:
