# How to migrate from an already existing Nextcloud installation to Nextcloud AIO?
There are basically two ways how to migrate from an already existing Nextcloud installation to Nextcloud AIO:
There are basically three ways how to migrate from an already existing Nextcloud installation to Nextcloud AIO:
1. Migrate only the files which is the easiest way

## Use the user_migration app
A new way since the Nextcloud update to 24 is to use the new [user_migration app](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/user_migration#app-gallery). It allows to export the most important data on one instance and import it on a different Nextcloud instance. For that, you need to install and enable the user_migration app on your old instance, trigger the export for the user, create the user on the new instance, log in with that user and import the archive that was created during the export. This then needs to be done for each user that you want to migrate.
