FAQ: Keyboard Shortcuts file directory

For the benefit of anyone wanting to migrate their keyboard shortcuts to a new computer now that Sync Settings is gone, you can find your custom keyboard shortcut files here:

 

Windows: C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro\<version>\Profile-<profilename>\win

Mac: macOS: /Users/<username>/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/<version>/Mac

 

Copy and paste the .kys file to the same directory on your new computer.

 

Disappointing that Adobe never provided these instructions when deciding to discontinue Sync Settings, and also disappointing that we can't import and export keyboard settings in-app when we can can do it for things like label colours and proxy settings (surely there's more user-demand for importing keyboard settings than label colours?!).
