Yes, you can move data from a Windows 7 64-bit PC to a Windows 8.1 64-bit system via an external hard drive without installing anything. Simply copy the files using a tool like File Explorer or a simple disk cloning utility.

We intend to move the relevant files. For software, it’s best to reinstall them on the new system. For images or important documents, you’re welcome to proceed with transferring those as well.

I checked the compatibility between your Steam game data and Windows 8 from a Windows 7 PC. There should be no issues since Steam packages are designed for cross-platform use. To prevent backing up your OS files, simply download and install the necessary software directly on your Windows 8 system without any additional steps.
