    You can just zip up your mystic directory recursively and unzip it on
    another compter. As long as the paths are the same I think you're good to
    go at that point.

    Yep, as long as your paths don't change I think you'll be OK.

    Keep a back up ... always!

    Migration worked ok but initially zipping and unzipping would not work so I did a straight copy and paste of the mystic directory Thanks for your advice

    Regards
