Need help transfering Hand History from Mac to PC

Hi

I have been collecting Hand History data on my Mac for over a year now (I used to use a program called Poker Copilot on by Mac but getting sick of it continually crashing and slow loading times so I just purchased PT3 for my PC Laptop (couldnt get the database to work on my mac for some reason).

The program is going fine on my PC but I can't figure out how to transfer all my hand history files from my Mac to my PC? I assume I should be able to do it as all the files are saved as .txt files on my Mac. I was going to just put them all on a USB stick and just drag and drop into my Pokerstars handhistory folder on the laptop.. the problem is I cant even find the hand history folder on my PC?

PokerTracker is telling me its saving the files to
C:\Users\Matt\AppData\Local\PokerStars\HandHistory\Revengaa\

But if I go to Users\Matt there is no 'AppData' directory there?

How do I get my hand history files from my Mac to my PC and how do I even find the hand history directory on my PC in the first place?

Thanks for your help :/

The Appdata folder should be there but it may be hidden - try setting show hidden folders in the Windows Explorer options.
However, you don't need to copy hand history the files to that folder - it is quicker to just save them where you want to store them (maybe in the PokerTracker 3\Processed folder) and do a Manual Import from there.

If you want to get PT3 working on your Mac please create a Support ticket and explain your problem and we'll help you get things working - PT3 works fine on Mac once you get it set up.

No - your license is good on any two computers at the same time, that you own and operate. It is not tied to one operating system or the other.
