Migrating Accounts and Records When Switching Computers
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:
- Export the necessary account info or logs from the old computer.
- Install the latest official Ledger Live on the new computer.
- Connect the device and wait until it is detected.
- Sync accounts and verify every address and balance.
- 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.
