Overview of the Simple SD Card Transfer Tool

You might be looking for a powerful SD card transfer tool that lets you easily transfer data, files, music, images, and apps without having to copy and paste, not to mention that Windows doesn't allow you to copy Windows-related files and folders. A convenient solution is available. With one or two computers/laptops, you can efficiently transfer SD card data without losing any of it.

So, what's people's favorite magic SD card transfer/migration tool? The answer should go to the Todo PCTrans tool. This program asks for little but delivers as told. No matter how large your SD card storage is or where you use it, just plug it into your computer with a memory card reader, run Todo PCTrans, and it gets to work.

Here are some common scenarios where you might need to transfer data between SD cards, or move files around on an SD card.

    • 3DS owners planning to upgrade their SD card capacity;
    • Replacing an old SD card with a new one;
    • Android smartphone/camera users transferring media files from an SD card to a computer;
    • Moving movies, videos, images, or backup files from a computer to an SD card.

How to Use PCTrans as an Easy SD Card Transfer Tool

Todo PCTrans offers three ways to transfer data and files between locations. All channels, whether through a network connection, an image file, or a local application transfer, are quite useful when shifting stuff to and from an SD card. Since an SD card can be read by any Windows computer and is treated as one of the machine's drives, Todo PCTrans can do its job immediately.

Main Interface

1. Transfer data between SD cards

By preparing two computers with Windows, you can easily transfer data between SD cards using the Todo PCTrans tool over a network. Insert the SD cards into different computers and run Todo PCTrans on both machines, selecting the "PC to PC" option. Once the two computers connect successfully, choose the specific data, folders, and applications you wish to transfer, and initiate the process.

Note that the transfer can only be done from a lower version of Windows to a higher one, such as moving the SD card data from a Windows 7 computer to a Windows 10 computer.

2. Transfer the SD card via an image file

By creating an image file, you can transfer data from an SD card to your computer, from your computer to an SD card, or even between SD cards. Launch Todo PCTrans, click “Create Image File,” select the folder and apps you want to create an image of, then copy that image to your target computer. Run Todo PCTrans on your new system and choose “Restore from Image File.”

3. Transfer Local Apps

This mode is used for application transfer, for instance, if you want to move your Steam games to the SD card, remember the drive letter that represents the SD card on your Windows computer, then launch Todo PCTrans and choose “App Transfer.” All removable apps will be listed and marked with a “Yes.” Select the apps you want to transfer and specify the location in “Transfer To.” Click “Transfer” to move the selected applications.
