Personality Restore

You must run the Personality Backup and Restore Utility from a user account with administrator privileges.

Caution: To help ensure a successful restore, close as many open files and running applications as is possible before you run the restore. Do not launch new applications or open files while the restore is running, as this can cause the restore to fail.

Before you begin the restore procedure, you must install (on the destination computer) all applications that have settings to be migrated. Note that for all applications other than Microsoft Office (where a newer version is allowed), the same application version must be installed on the destination computer as was installed on the source computer.

Note: You should do a restore to a computer on the same Windows domain that was used for the backup. You should also do a restore to the same locale (for example, US English) that was used for the backup.
