You just need to copy the entire folder "/Data" into the new server machine, then you can have the same user data files.

Please check whether exists .bakfile files under the folder "Data/_ADMINISTRATOR", and you also need to restart the WingFTP service.

Yes, I have checked there is only two files placed under _administrator folder admins.xml and settings.xml, There is no .bak files under mentioned folder , even I have tried multiple time to restart wingftp service but result is not expected as needed.

So just add a new admin on the new server machine, just launch the WingFTP installer package, then you will be required to input USER/PASS for the new admin.
