I have a new laptop and want to install GAM 7.  I have VM Gam-ADV-XTD3 and a laptop with GAM:

I've tried to follow some old Google Group question from 2017 on what to do, but want to check what the best route to take is....

LAPTOP
GAM 6.58 - https://jaylee.us/gam - pyinstaller
Jay Lee <jay...@gmail.com>
Python 3.11.3 64-bit final
google-api-python-client 2.86.0
Windows 10 10.0.19045 SP0 Multiprocessor Free AMD64
Path: C:\Users\rr900786\GAM_LSC

VM
GAMADV-XTD3 6.59.05 - https://github.com/taers232c/GAMADV-XTD3 - pyinstaller
Ross Scroggs <ross.s...@gmail.com>
Python 3.11.3 64-bit final
Windows 10 10.0.14393 SP0 Multiprocessor Free AMD64
Path: C:\GAMADV-XTD3
Config File: C:\GAMConfig\gam.cfg, Section: DEFAULT, customer_id: my_customer, domain:

I know I need/should copy copy client_secrets.json, oauth2service.json and oauth2.txt over, but then saw something about copying the c:\GAMConfig folder over from the Advanced GAM.

is that the route I should go?  copy that GamConfig folder over and then run what?
When do I run gam update project?

Confused about the order of things and what to run when.

Many thanks for your contributions and help.
Keith

Start on the VM machine.

Do:
gam update project
gam oauth create
gam user us...@yourdomain.com update serviceaccount

On the laptop

Copy gam.cfg, client_secrets.json, oauth2service.json and oauth2.txt 
from C:\GamConfig on theVM to C:\GamConfig on the laptop.
