I need to buy a new computer.  I am running Win7 and will likely go to Win10.  Can someone please point me to instructions on how to transfer TMG?  I have the execute file for v9.05. Bud Dorr

Hi Bud, You can simply install TMG on your new computer and use the key and other (name and email address) information from when you purchased TMG to register it. Then copy all the files in your TMG directory to your new computer. This might be easier on you if you copy these files to the same locations as they were in your old computer. Copying can be done by a thumb drive, a cloud service like DropBox or using your local network.

Bud, Putting TMG on a new PC is not hard, but there are some subtleties and it's best to know about them before you begin. Terry Reigel wrote an article about the process and I recommend that you read it. http://tmg.reigelridge.com/new-computer-version.htm John

Others have given some useful suggestions for getting TMG going on Windows 10. I'll just point out that for those who aren't ready to move to Windows 10, some manufacturers are still offering Windows 7. I recently bought a Fujitsu laptop with Windows 7 and the option of free upgrade to 10. As a person more interested in getting my work done than in learning new operating system after new operating system, I like to stick with any OS that has proven to be pretty good until I feel there is another good (or unavoidable) new OS.
