Hi all,

Is there a way to transfer all my personal setting to another account, say favourite
colors / hidden parts so that I can shift my personal setting to my PC and MAC.

Hope it is a common wish of other members as well.

Thanks for your reading.

Paul

Hi,

First, the dedicated forum for Studio and PartDesigner is https://forum.bricklink.com/
(hover over the red Studio icon on every page, then click “Studio Forum”).

As for your question:

Some of your settings (hidden parts, custom palettes, custom parts) are in your
user’s folder (C:\Users\{YOUR USERNAME}\AppData\Local\Stud.io\ on Windows, /Users/{YOUR
USERNAME}/.local/share/Stud.io on Mac; AppData & .local are hidden).
You should be able to copy them from one system to the other.

Other settings (like favorite colours ) are in Windows’ registry.  They are
a pain to extract and transfer.
On Mac, those are in a preference file in the user’s directory.

Thanks for your help, it is definitely helpful. And I will post my problems to
your suggested location next time.
