You do have to reinstall the software (it cannot be moved).  I have found for files the easiest thing is to ensure that everything is backed up to the "cloud", for example OneDrive, and then they are so easy to retrieve from there.

Once you get your new PC, you will download the software and install it from this link.  https://profile.intuit.ca/download .

 

Then you can use onedrive as Janice mentioned, or you can copy the whole MyprofileData directory to a USB key and then copy from USB to the new PC.

 

We have instruction here ...
