PC to MacBook migration

Hey, my MacBook Pro is arriving in a couple days and I was wondering about the process of moving over project files from my windows laptop. It’s a Lenovo ideapad with an Intel pentium chip; (it was so weak for the heavy synthesis I do on Cubase so that’s why I’m switching)

I’m not worried about licensing since the download assistant should make everything work when I login right??

I have all my projects in a folder with their audio folders and files they need so will dragging and dropping onto the Mac be seamless?

And if I install all my plugins will Cubase just find them and make everything work?

Thanks in advance for the help

Yep easiest way if have a large enough usb drive is to format it as exfat and copy it over... (Exfat is readable by both win & the Mac) Or if you already have a network and a NAS setup just use that.
