You have a fresh OS on your PC and want to move old documents from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1, but Windows is blocking them. You’re wondering if an external drive can act as a bridge, or if you need a secondary drive that both systems recognize. Your attempts with the secondary HDD didn’t work because it wasn’t accessible in Windows 8.1.
