Importing preferences when downloading to new device

Question

I just bought a new laptop and installed Creative Cloud and Audition. I had hoped that when I opened Audition for the first time it would prompt me to import all my stuff (preferences, racks, favorites, custom workspaces, etc.) like it did when I recently added the beta version of Audition on my main computer - but it didn't.

I looked through Adobe help to try to find out how to migrate all this stuff but came up empty, so I'm turning to the forum for help: is there an easy way to get all my stuff from my main copy of Audition over to the secondary copy on my new device?

Thanks,

Brian

It's all in your preferences folder. What you might be able to do (and I must stress that I haven't tried this lately, but it used to work) is to copy the entire folder to your new desktop, pick it up and place it on top of the Audition icon. At that point a message asking you whether this is okay displays, and you agree to it. If this doesn't work, then you have to replace items in the folder manually with the ones you want to be there.

Preferences folder is located at C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\13.0 and by default is hidden.
