The copy method is re-hosting is not preferred because the folder structure is different. Process involves

1. Install 9.1 on Windows following the same settings and configuration which you have in your existing environment.
2. Recreate configurations like version series, custom roles and custom states.
3. Export the database, LDAP and vaults
4. Import the database, LDAP and vaults
5. Run ant command to rename the configuration branch of LDAP
6. Update repository table to match the new server and domain names.
7. Update site and vault names and validate mounts
8. Reconfigure the CAD workers
