Overview: Migrating Accounts and Records When Switching Computers — here are the key points in plain English.

Key takeaway: Stick to the official flow, keep the device and app in sync, and keep a verified backup — that alone lowers most of the risk.

Action steps:

  1. Export the necessary account info or logs from the old computer.
  2. Install the latest official Ledger Live on the new computer.
  3. Connect the device and wait until it is detected.
  4. Sync accounts and verify every address and balance.
  5. Confirm nothing is missing, then remove Ledger Live from the old machine.

Safety reminder: Use only the official Ledger site and Ledger Live. Never type your recovery phrase or PIN into a webpage and never share them with anyone. Pause and verify the moment anything looks unusual.
