TIL about 1C when I had to move it from one windows laptop to another. First and last windows post here hopefully

Ref: 1С – как перенести базу на другой компьютер

Long story short:

• 1C v 7.7 from 1999 can be literally copied to another laptop and it works, windows is good at this.
• the database is also a directory, which is usually shown when you start 1C and choose the DB to open
• that directory can be copied
  • I THINK it’s good karma if the path on both computers is identical, but am not certain
• if the version matches that should be it
• no idea how to check if it worked :)
