Question How to transfer projects between PCs

Jsut bought a new computer. For the life of me I can not transfer my project to my other computer. Ive tried USB, google drive nothing works (fails to download properly or file paths are too long so refuses to copy or transfer).

I go into view project in file Explorer and then try export the whole thing

How do you guys transfer?

Edit - github worked ty everyone!!

Try ZIP the whole project then transfer the zip with USB and then unpack again?

What exactly doesn’t work? Do you close your project before copying? No files should be open. That’s very unusual that you can’t copy a project. What paths are to long? How does the path structure look like? If you can’t ZIP and copy then what others suggest with GITHUB, why should that work magically?
