Notes:

  • You need to add your MEGA accounts one by one to MultCloud. After adding them successfully, you will find they are listed under “Add Cloud in the left panel. 
  • MultCloud sets no limit to the number of adding clouds, so you can add as many cloud drive accounts as you have to MultCloud.

After adding your MEGA accounts to MultCloud, there are two different solutions about how to transfer files between MEGA accounts for you to choose between. The first solution will use "Copy to" which is simple but allows you to copy files to more than one account or folder at a time, while the second solution will use "Cloud Transfer" with multifunctional settings.

Solution 1: Migrate Files from One MEGA Account to Another by "Copy to"

Step 1. Open your old MEGA account in MultCloud, select files and folders you want to transfer from this account. Then choose "Copy to" in the feature bar above. Step 2. Select your new MEGA account as the destination, then click “OK”  and MultCloud will transfer files from one MEGA account to another immediately.
