Now I want a bit help to migrate the Windows 8 virtual machine to a new one How to do that. It will be easier for me. I have configured a few applications on that which are used for cloud backup.

It is possible. But I am not really sure after migrating the virtual machine is going to work well. It can be crashing or cause problem. It is essential that you must migrate it and test it first, before removing or deleting the content of your old machine. That will cause problem if you just delete the same after copying. I had never tested this migration thing so I am not clearly sure how it really works. It is essential that you must test it first.

There are different migration process for different virtual software. Like Vmware or Vsphere. The settings are quiet different. And I know that it works well. I had downloaded various virtual OS pack directly from internet and added them in vmware. It starts working fine. There is no issue with the same. So if you are having vmware then you just have to right click on the same and copy it. You have to import that in new system and you can use it.
