move Sage 50 2024 to a new computer

SUGGESTED

Hello.

I bought a new laptop with Windows 11, and I want to move my 2 companies to the new computer.  Do i just install Sage 50 - 2024 edition on the new computer, then backup (on the current, working old one), and restore to the new one and all should be good?

Also, what happens to the previous old/closed/archived files that I have saved over the years, do they transfer though the backup file?  

Please advise before I start the process of all this.  I was thinking to copy the folder from the C: drive, but want to make sure ALL the archive files also transfer in case I ever need any info from previous years for whatever reason.

Thanks in advance...
