It's simple. Install ResScan on your new computer and create a dummy patient to find out where ResScan wants to store its data files. Then, search your hard drive to find the path to that dummy patient, and copy your folder of ResScan data (with your name) to the same path. Your data will automatically be available in ResScan the next time you open it.

If you have trouble finding it, it may be in a hidden folder. Mine is in C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\ResMed\ResScan3\Patients
