I'm trying to set up my new laptop to be just like my old one, which is running Windows 10. Both laptops have the same hardware, but I'm struggling with syncing my Windows settings. I've looked up various solutions online, but nothing has worked so far. Once I get my settings sorted out, I'll be able to reinstall my programs and transfer my photos. It's important to me to have everything set up exactly like before, including my background and settings. I have autism, and setting up new devices can be really overwhelming for me. This process has been particularly frustrating, and I genuinely need help.

I understand the struggle, especially since your old laptop is basically on its last legs. With a mangled drive, transferring files directly like that might not be possible. Have you considered using Windows Backup and Restore or third-party software to help with settings and files? That could simplify the process for you!
If the hardware is identical, you might want to try moving your boot device from the old laptop to the new one, provided that the drives can be swapped. Just check your BitLocker settings before you do that, though! It could be a straightforward fix if that's an option for you.
