I've tried that 4 or 5 times already

Try these steps:

First, make sure you've installed CB2025 on the new computer.

Next, follow these steps to transfer your database from your old computer to the new using a USB thumb drive:

• Launch ComicBase on your older computer and make sure your main database is loaded in
• Next, Go to the File > Save a Copy to save your database to the USB thumb drive. Give your database a new unique name so its easy to locate (ex: Dan's Comic Collection).
• Onced saved, safely remove the USB thumb drive from the older computer.
• insert the USB thumb drive in the new computer,
• Locate the database file on the thumb drive and copy it over to the following folder location:  Documents \Human Computing\ComicBase Databases folder
• Once the database has been copied, double-click on it and it should automatically load into ComicBase 2025 on the new computer
