How Do I Move PowerDirector and All of My Effects/Templates to Another Computer?

Scroll Prev Top Next More

If you ever need to move your PowerDirector to a new computer, you can easily do so but you'll need to do some preparation first for the best results by:

Backing Up Your PowerDirector Projects

Backing Up Your Custom Templates

Once you have backed up your projects and templates, 365 subscribers can install PowerDirector on the new computer using the CyberLink Application Manager (CAM). All of the effect packs and stock media can be reinstalled using CAM as well.

Note: if you have PowerDirector Ultra or Ultimate installed, please contact CyberLink Customer Service if you need the PowerDirector installation files.

Backing Up Your PowerDirector Projects

Make sure you back up all of your current and previous PowerDirector projects on CyberLink Cloud to ensure you do not lose any important media or projects you may want to use again. See How Do I Upload Media and Projects to CyberLink Cloud? for more information.

The media files you downloaded from Shutterstock and CyberLink via CAM should be included in your backed up packed PowerDirector projects.

Backing Up Your Custom Templates

Any custom title templates, PiP objects, particle objects, menu templates, etc. that you created or edited can be backed up to CyberLink Cloud. Once backed up, you can then download them on the new computer once CyberLink PowerDirector is re-installed.
