Moving Apps from ver.1.6.1.0 to ver.10.0.1. Is there a simple way?

Is it possible to move Apps from old 1.6.1.0 version using Windows Explorer?
(Not via fresh installing in 10.0.1 version)

I am using many Apps in 1.6.1.0 version (win7-32). And few Apps like Firefox have many own Extensions.
In old days I did that and it was Ok.

thank you for response...

How to install the new platform?
From inside the old platform (like portable apps) or from outside (from windows like other windows programs)

install

Download it from here save it and install it like you would a normal App. It does require that PortableApps not be running at the time of install

Install to root of drive

Make sure to install it to the correct location. If your platform is currently installed to X:\, your folder structure should look like this:

X:\
 - Documents
    - Music
    - Videos
    - Pictures
 - PortableApps
    - PortableApps.com
    - FirefoxPortable (etc)
 - StartPortableApps.exe
 - autorun.inf

And you would install the new version to X:\, not any subdirectory of it.
