Release notes:

Windows 9x
PCMigrator requires VB Runtime (MSVBVM60.DLL) however it is not installed by default on non-NT operating systems. The runtime is included in the zip file and should be placed alongside PCMigrator.exe.

zip32.dll
Zip32.dll is a free library of compressions routines from Info-ZIP (www.info-zip.org). This file is created alongside PCMigrator.exe when the application is run for the first time.

Settings.ini
The Settings.ini file contains configuration settings. A default configuration file is created alongside PCMigrator.exe when the application is run for the first time.
