How do I export and back up my custom Audition effect group presets?

[dublove]

I've searched everywhere but can't find the export settings.
If I reinstall the software or reset my system, everything will be lost and I'll have to start over?
This seems very inconvenient.

In principle, it should also be possible to back up individual custom settings for specific ef

You’re right — Audition doesn’t have a super obvious “export presets” button. But you can back them up manually:

• On Windows, your custom effect presets are stored in:
  C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\<version>\

• On macOS, check:
  ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Audition/<version>/

Inside those folders, you’ll find .xml or .prm files that contain your custom effect racks and presets. Just copy those to a safe location (cloud, external drive, etc.).

When you reinstall or move to a new machine, drop them back into the same directory and Audition will recognize them. 👍

Thank you very much.

This must be a major blunder on Adobe's part.
