Worked fine. Thanks you! Just maybe a suggestion to modify instructions at restoring data from a standalone installation. It seems that SSHing directly to the host is not needed anymore. Z2m's data folder is now visible from File Editor addon at |

TL;DR - How can I migrate from standalone NPM installation on Windows to new HA Addon deployment with keeping all the data and moving the same physical USB stick?
I’ve been using z2m for years running natively on a Windows machine using npm for Windows (because reasons beyond this post). That machine has suddenly died. Now I want to migrate my HA+z2m instance to the Virtualization Station on QNAP NAS. Installing HA was easy because I had previous HA instance create weekly backups and auto-upload them to the NAS. But installing z2m addon is a problem now because previous z2m instance on Windows was very old. Z2m seems to support restoring data from a standalone installation but this requires versions to match. It might work accross versions, but I’m not risking having to re-pair 30+ devices, some of which inaccessible physically. I also might be able to spin up another Windows machine from backup and update npm version there, but previous attempts to run npm update commands on Windows have usually broken something.
Options that I see:
