Is there a way I could continue the progress but on a different device?

So I have been running PRP test on a number and am almost 25% done with it but unfortunately the device on which that was running got crashed.
Is there a way I could continue the progress but on a different device this time? I hope you get what I mean

Thanks & regards

If you can transport the files to a new machine, yes. Look for the files that are new and have a bunch of numbers in the file name. And the worktodo file.

ls -lth | head if you have access to a serious console...

The OP did not say what application. But there's a reference info post for that (moving work in progress). If you can't get access to the last saved checkpoint files, try recovering them from backups.
