What are the steps to migrate from one computer to another without having to redownload?

I will be replacing my computer soon, and although the simple solution is to install Native Access and redownload everything again on the new computer, I do not relish the thought of going through a 1.5TB download session.
All my Native Instruments libraries are on an external SSD, so is it possible to simple 're-locate' the libraries rather than re-downloading?

And if 're-locate' is possible, is it also possible to do that in a single click rather than each individual library at a time?

Thanks for you help.

Yes. Simply move the SSD to the new rig.

Then install Native Access (and login to your NI acct) and ensure that you modify the File Locations (under Preferences) to point to your old stash of stuff. Restart the machine

When NA comes back up again - you should see the Locate buttons light up for all your existing libraries.

Have at it.
