explains in a blog post:

“This tool will copy your files, music, videos, email and user profiles and settings from your old PC to your new device, transferring across your home or work network, and even enables Windows XP users to customize exactly what they want to bring over to their new device.”
Redmond plans to make the application available for download later this week, and while it will initially be available only in English, support for several other languages will be added in soon after that. Now you might be wondering what’s with the Express in the program title? As Microsoft notes, a premium solution called PCmover Professional is also available that can be used to migrate applications running on Windows XP to a newer computer with Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. It is available at a special price for those interested.]]>

  • MAybe they should extend compatibility mode in 8.1 Update 1 and add some type of VM or emulator to it that actually runs XP within 8.1 on a 90 day trial, while people still transition
