I purchased the Migration Tool a long time ago and it has always worked fine with 32bit versions of P3D, which it was designed for.
I not longer use any 32bit simulators.
Migration Tool is not designed for the new 64bit version which is P3Dv4.1, and will destroy your installation if you try to use it with the latest version or if you try migrating 32bit addons to the 64bit environment of P3Dv4.
Migration tool was designed to migrate 32bit addons from FSX to a 32bit version P3D.
Do NOT install any addons into P3Dv4.1 with Migration tool, or any other way, unless the addon developer actually says that it was designed for P3Dv4 or P3Dv4.1.
Sometimes it will work, but most of the time it will break your installation of P3Dv4.
This has been my experience and I believe is a good rule of thumb.

Having similar issues to other users. Causing major problems, and I seem unable to disable or uninstall the software. Support is non-existent, contacted the developer 3 times over the past month and not even the courtesy of a reply to acknowledge receipt or to say they are looking at the problem.

I bought this software to help install Ultimate traffic 2 in P3D. Now I have got a P3D installation that throws up dialogs saying it can't find things. And a FSX installation that is blocked from starting by this software. I will now have to uninstall this rubbish and reinstall my flight sims.And I get to pay for the privilege. Absolute nonsense, don't waste your money!

While you can usually get FSX addons installed into Prepar3D on your own by using junctions, editing the registry etc., this utility saves a huge amount of time by automating the process. It's literally just one click to enable redirection, and one click to disable it. Well worth the cost if you have a large library of older addons.

So let's start writing what this program DONT DO. If you have FSX or FSX SE and you are moving to P3D V3 for example, this program doesn't move all your addons by him self to the new SIM.
So, why is it useful? Well if you try to think that any time that a new patch or version come out, for example FSX SE edition, or P3D V3 and then will be V4 and so on, it need a lot of time for the 3rd parties to change the installer to recognize the new version, and we are not sure they will ever do it... EG. I was using FSX SE edition , bought FSglobal 2010, 80$ product, and when i tried to install it on P3d V3 the installer was not able yet to recognize P3D V3, so what I had to do? Move 24Gb of tecture manually folder by folder? Crazy!! This small little tool is saying to the installer that a version of FSX or even P3D is installed on you pc, but it give the correct path to the installer, so you have just to enable the program, run the 3d party installer and then it will recognize the new path and it works great!!! Without it I would not be able to install tons of airports and free staff in the new SIM. It's true that it doesn't move all the add on staff, you have to uninstall first and then reinstall, but on the other side, without this program I am not sure you would be able to install it at all again. For me it's a Must have for just few money!!!!

Couldn't be made more simple.
- Install
- Enable virtual FSX
- install FSX addon in P3D
- Done.

The "must have" product for switching to Prepar3D ! Saved me countless hours of searching the forums for work-a-rounds to install my add-on products.

Very straight forward.
Helped me place add ons I waited a year or more to have in P3D
Big thanks to the guys who built it.

This is not a migration tool, it's a tool to help you reinstall your FSX addons into P3D easily. To that extent, it works well. But if you're thinking, like I did, that this will automatically move the dozens (maybe hundreds?) of FSX addons I've installed over the years into P3D at the touch of a button you'll be disappointed. Instead, I'm forced to find and reinstall these items from my download folders, emails, and other places where they've been stashed. Not a pleasant experience, and not what I expected. Maybe if I'd read the copy more thoroughly, or had a review like this to let me know what I was buying, I wouldn't have purchased.
(But if you don't have a problem reinstalling your FSX addons, this tool works perfectly.)

This tool is a Must have if you are running Prepar3D.
I managed to make every single FSX and FS9 Addon work on my Prepar3D
without any workarounds or special configuration.
just run the addon installation as you would normal do with FSX and that tool would automatically
do it's magic and make it install correctly in P3D.
never was I disappointed with this tool.
it's a Must tool and a vital tool for P3D users.!!!

Seems to cause a false positive on some AVs, but it's a great little utility which does exactly what it says on the tin! Support is also exemplary. Highly recommended!

I love it when a product does exactly what the "brochure" says. It's like a Maverick missile: Fire and forget. I used this little gem to migrate tons of add-ons i purchased for FSX in the past years and i'm talking about very complex ones. No problem what so ever. Planes, scenerys, tools, you name it. The ONLY exception is the VRS SuperBug but it is something to do with VRS itself not this product (as stipulated on the VRS support forum).
Money well spent.

Works very well - set it and forget. Haven't come across any issues and makes it simple to move across from FSX to Prepar3d. I got rid of FSX completely, so copying files and changing xml and cfg files isn't really an option, and would have always been a hassle. I've only come across a problem with the Airbus X but everything - from scenery to complex aircraft such as the PMDG 737 ngx and 747-400x seems to install without any intervention. I can recommend just for ease of use.

This product is pretty easy to use and does exactly what it says on the tin! No more messing about with config files to install complex addons, this is a simple and effective solution, you can even run FSX and P3d alongside each other too!

EZCA and TrackIR installed perfectly into Prepar3D, with this tool. It was so very easy. No modifying file names or XML files. Also installed Carenado's KingAir C90B without any problems and it also works perfectly. I also used the tool to add Arezone's Beechcraft KingAir C90B Soundset to the aircraft. Just read the short manual and follow instructions.
I believe FSX to Prepar3D Migration Tool will be revolutionary in getting flight simmers moved over to Prepar3D from FSX with all of their freeware and payware addons intact.
The support from Flightsim Estonia is great. They are very friendly, answer any questions right away and are constantly improving the tool and adding features to it.
