Default Moving Outlook to new PC


I am migrating an Outlook 2010 installation from one computer to another that, at least for a little while, will be on the same network.

Is there an easy way to move the accounts and personal folders from one installation to the other. I know in previous editions you could simply export the personal folders to a file (PST I think) and move it that way.

Can I just copy the complete file structure over from the old computer? (the files structure in the AppData directory)

C:\Users\Mickey\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\*. *
I'm thinking I can just install Outlook on the new computer and then copy over the AppData structure. WIll this work?

The easiest way to do this would be to export the info to a pst file, then import it on the new pc.
