November 8, 20241 yr Hey all, Not really sure what to call this subject, but I’m planning on jumping onto MS2024 at release, but then moving over to a full new build pc in around Feb next year. Mines getting a little long in the tooth now so I want to do a new build when the 5000 series cards are released and possibly move over to the new AMD 9800X3D CPU (I’ve been Intel since…well probably 25 years now) Has anyone moved across onto new rig while using 2020? I’m wondering if the controller profiles are picked up if you do a new install on a new pc? I am assuming that if they are on 2020, then theoretically the same should apply for 2024? Many thanks!

I am assuming that if they are on 2020, then theoretically the same should apply for 2024? The controller profiles are totally different from 2020, you won't be able to carry over. That's a feature they improved a lot and because of that, they are not compatible. 9800X3D@H150i // Msi RTX 5090 Trio OC // 64GB DDR5 6000mhz CL30 // 2TB + 1TB Nvme Dell 27" 2127DGF - 1440p - Gsync - 165hz Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus // TCA Quadrant Airbus // TFRP T.Flight Rudder Pedals // Logitech Flight Multi Panel
November 8, 20241 yr Author No no I was thinking more along the lines of setting up my controllers in 2024 later this month. Then switching over to a new build pc early next year. Would those 2024 profiles likely transfer when I re-install 2024 on the new rig? I guess nobody can definitively answer that right now, but I was wondering if anyone had done anything similar in 2020? Anthony Milner

November 8, 20241 yr Author Thanks chaps! Not that it would have stopped me upgrading! Haha! I’d probably just not have bothered spending too much time setting them up if I’d have to do it all over again in a few months! Anthony Milner
November 8, 20241 yr Moving 2020 from one computer to another will preserve all controller profiles because they have been also in the cloud all that time. Moving from 2020 to 2024 will not preserve any controller profile at all. No, not one old assignment will be carried over. This is not a guess or theory, it has been stated as fact by Microsoft many times. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

November 8, 20241 yr On the other hand the default preassignments for a given controller that were there in 2020 will be carried over to 2024 (even though that was not true in the Alpha 2024). 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.
