If you want to migrate the bitcoin data too, follow this guide:

This guide will work exactly as written if using a Mac or Linux machine. To setup ssh in Windows you can follow Microsoft's instructions: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/openssh_install_firstuse

The commands used in this video:

ssh into your Umbrel:
ssh umbrel@umbrel.local

run the stop script:
sudo ./umbrel/scripts/stop

exit back to your machine:
exit

make directory on interim device for LND data:
mkdir -p umbrelmigration/main

change into that directory:
cd umbrelmigration/main

copy the data from the Umbrel:
rsync --delete --progress -av umbrel@umbrel.local:~/umbrel/lnd/* .

SETUP SSH GUIDE:
https://start9.com/latest/user-manual/ssh

ssh into your Embassy:
ssh start9@YOUR_EMBASSY_LAN_ADDRESS.local

copy authorized key to root user:
sudo -i
mkdir -p /root/.ssh
cp /home/start9/.ssh/authorized_keys /root/.ssh/authorized_keys

make the directory for the LND data:
mkdir -p /embassy-data/package-data/volumes/lnd/data/main

exit root user:
exit

exit ssh session:
exit

copy data from local machine to Embassy:
rsync --delete --progress -av * root@YOUR_EMBASSY_LAN_ADDRESS.local:/embassy-data/package-data/volumes/lnd/data/main

ssh back into Embassy:
ssh start9@YOUR_EMBASSY_LAN_ADDRESS.local

navigate to LND directory and list contents:
cd /embassy-data/package-data/volumes/lnd/data/main
ls

tell Embassy your LND wallet password:
sudo -i
the following command requires a "greater than" symbol - youtube forbids typing it here:
echo -n 'moneyprintergobrrr' "greater than" /embassy-data/package-data/volumes/lnd/data/main/pwd.dat

When creating the service: sc create tor start= auto binPath= "THE PATH TO YOUR TOR BROWSER DIRECTORY\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\tor.exe -nt-service"
