By the end of 2022, most PCs will be running Windows 11. Downloading and installing Windows 11 should not be a problem if you upgrade from a Windows 10 system. However, the actual question is how to transfer your running programs such as the HP Smart as they were on the previous version of your Windows.
You may have to buy a new computer if your existing laptop or PC does not support Windows 11. Transferring files from Windows 10 and Windows 11 is a common issue. Let's look at moving your data to your new Windows 11 device.
What Is HP Smart?
Smart Print is a printing program that enables you to print just the information you need. It may be accessed using the button on the HP Bing Bar. It will choose an initial print-worthy region and format the print output accordingly, allowing you to conserve both ink and paper in the printing process.
A printing program known as HP Smart is utilized to control HP Printers. You may have an obsolete version of it, known as an "HP All-in-One." When the program fails, or if you no longer have access to an HP printer, it is recommended that you transfer the HP Smart system that is now installed on your computer when you upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 on your computer.

You can't just copy files from one computer to another to get the same results with most programs, such as Microsoft Office.

Step 1. Sign in to OneDrive with your Microsoft account and upload the program's folder from your hard drive to the online storage service.
Step 2. The program folder you just uploaded will now appear in the online storage.
Step 3. Log in to the same Microsoft account on the other Windows machine, and now you may download the application folder from the cloud.
Note: You'll need to unzip the downloaded zip file to your desired installation location in this scenario.
Bonus Method: Manually Re-install HP Smart from the Website
You can print, copy, and scan using the HP Smart app for PCs and mobile devices. Additionally, you can use the app to diagnose difficulties with your printer and set up a printer to function over a wireless network. You may manually re-install the HP Smart app from the website by following the instructions that are listed below.
Step 1. Download the HP Smart app by going to 123.hp.com (for Android, Apple iOS, and iPadOS), the HP Smart section of the Microsoft Store (for Windows), or the HP Smart section of the Mac App Store (Mac).
Step 2. Install the HP Smart app on your device and proceed to set up your printer. If you are launching HP Smart for the very first time, the application will make an effort to discover and configure the printer.
Step 3. If this is not the first time you have used HP Smart, you may locate the printer by clicking the "Add Printer" button or the "plus" symbol.
Step 4. Restore Wi-Fi setup mode. The vast majority of printers with a touchscreen display or menu: Launch the Wireless or Setup menu, pick Network setup or Settings, and then select Restore Network Settings to restore your previous network configuration.
Step 5. Once the Printer has been repaired, use the HP Smart app to carry out any of the following tasks: printing, scanning, copying, or faxing.
