I’m moving from an old Windows 98 machine to a new Windows 10 PC. What’s the right way to transfer NotePager Pro, and which files should I keep?

1) On the current system, open NotePager Pro.
2) Go to Help - Folders.
3) Make a note of the 'Global Database' folder, then browse to that directory in Windows.
4) Make a copy of the npp.mdb file to take to the new system.
5) On the new system, download the installation file here: http://www.notepage.net/download/notepagerpro.exe
6) Right click on the installation file, left click on "Run as Administrator"
6a) If the UAC prompts you, allow the process to continue.
7) During the setup, unless you need to change the program's installation directory, you can just click 'Next' until the installation finishes. If you do need to modify the program's installation directory, you may do so during the insallation.
8) Right click on the shortcut for NotePager Pro, left click on "Run as Administrator"
7a) If the UAC prompts you, allow the process to continue.
9) You should receive a notification that this is a demo version of the program. Click 'Continue'.
10) Go to Help - Folders and make a note of the new system's 'Global Database' directory.
11) Close NotePager Pro.
12) Take the copy of the database you made in step 4 and paste it in to the new system's 'Global Database' directory, overwriting the existin

On the Windows 98 PC, open NotePager Pro → Help → Folders → copy the npp.mdb file (Global Database).
On the Windows 10 PC, install NotePager Pro → run it once → close it.
Paste npp.mdb into the new system’s Global Database folder and overwrite the existing file.
Launch the program again (preferably Run as Administrator).
You only need to keep the npp.mdb file.
