Transferring a campaign between computers.
So I am having trouble getting my campaigns transferred between two computers:
Laptop: Windows 10, with aging hardware, FG 3.3.x
Desktop: Windows 7, with much better hardware, FG 3.3.x
I was running the campaigns from the laptop, but it about to be retired, and I want to use my desktop as my main hub. However, after transfering the campaign data from the laptop, to Google drive, to the desktop, it desktop did not pick up the new campaigns. I've searched the forums, but have only come across older posts without a solution. Has anyone experienced this, and if so would you mind helping a novice?
Much appreciation in advanced.GMT offset is -5:00

Make sure that you click the folder icon in the FG launcher to get the FG data folder for the current machine. Then, copy the entire contents of the campaigns directory from your laptop to your new machine. When finished, you should have a folder for each campaign in the campaigns subfolder of the FG data folder on your new machine.
If still having issues, please send us screenshot (Alt+PrtScr) of Windows File Explorer showing the campaigns subfolder, as well as another one inside one of the campaign folders.
