This is just to share with you guys my experience with IM 5.4.16  and the above mentioned W10 version. Installation of IM went without problems. Use <P&G> for restoring the database and <Relocate> to get the right directories over my home network. All worked great and all categories, keywords and what have you are there. The only thing I missed were the presets for the Image Batch processor. They were obviously not restored, but no big deal as I exported/imported the one in question later. I looked into the help file (Mario: here is an active Helpfile user!! :) ) but couldn't figure out whether the presets for the import/export panel are saved/restored anyway with P&G.

But all in all an absolutely smooth transfer. When working with IM and the restored database I couldn't find any other issues either. Let's hope that this will be true for the future as well.

The presets are stored in the settings database and travel automatically when you copy  or P&G the settings database. All Import & Export modules use the same storage schema. Batch Processor presets are stored 'per user'. Do you use the same user name on the new installation?

Also installed on latest build,  x64 Enterprise.
No problems to install, migration of database went smoothly and without any hitch.

Yes, I did.

Then I have no clue. I tried it here and BP presets travel fine between computers.
