Transfer a VI and all its subvi's to new computer

I have a very complicated VI on an old computer and have been trying to find an easy way to transfer it to a new computer and bring with it all its subvi's as well?

If you dont really have a good structure of the needed vi's (as a file tree) you can Save to different location and it'll create a directory structure with the needed vi's. This can then be zipped and moved easily.

Sorry that didn't work when I save the file again it only saves the Main Vi and then when I go to another computer it is missing pluging, control, etc.

What "plugin" and "control"? If you are referring to things like DAQmx, or VISA, or Motion Control, or IMAQ, then these are toolkits or drivers, and you need to run the installers on the new computer. Do not try to simply copy these files over.
