Extract the zip folder you will now see the - Ember-qt file Move this program to a safe place i.e C:\MyWallets\Ember Right click ember wallet icon and select send to, then create shortcut on desktop. Double Click on Ember-qt shortcut and run program This will then create files in your AppData folder.

I always like to encrypt my wallet for security reasons, but if you do this, please make sure you create a strong secure password and don’t forget it! Write it down, store it somewhere safe such as Encryptr password manager - https://spideroak.com/personal/encryptr You will also need to make sure the wallet is unlocked for staking your Ember coins or you will not receive any rewards.
No I would not recommend sending them all at once. I would send a few coins first to make sure that they arrive where they are supposed to, you can then send bigger amounts.
This usually takes around 10 hours.
Based on 1 Million EMB, it will take around 24hrs, sometimes longer. (Based on current difficulty)
Yes you do. This will of course, use electricity and take it’s toll on your computer/device.
It’s based on 1.) the amount you are staking, and 2) the network weight (which is the total amount being staked by everybody)

No, all coins will be a straight swap. so if you own 1 Million EMB in old wallet, it will be 1 Million EMB in new wallet.
Here's how to estimate when you'll get your stake. Go to http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/EMB/index.php and look for Stake Weight Spent. Mouse over the red line - that's where the average weight is when a payout happens. Your weight starts at your coin value and goes up as the coins age. This ensures you will get your stake eventually.
The coins you get from staking is the same percentage, regardless of how many coins you have. It's 7200% per year return, which means, 19.7% per day. So, if you have 1,000,000 coins, you will "earn" 197,000 coins per day. If it takes 2 days for the stake to be rewarded, you'll get your per-day amount times 2, so 394,000 coins. Since the current stake weight is more like 9 million, it might take you 9 days to get your stake reward from 1,000,000 coins. In this case, your stake reward after 9 days would be 2,773,000 coins.
