Hi,

I have just changed my laptop and was just wondering if the is a quick way to move all my keyword filters, collections ect to the new computer or do i have to go through and set every thing up from scratch? dose the creative cloud save all this data so when you sign in its already there and ready to go?

Collections cannot generally be moved over, because pathnames change on a new computer. You can move over some of your data by copying what's in your AppData folder. I'm not a Windows user so I don't know overall how well that works but AppData->Roaming->Adobe has your bridge settings.

Yes, as a Windows user, that AppData folder contains much which can be successfully copied to a new system. I make a regular backup of this and have had cause to use it on occasion, particularly after Bridge crashed and reset itself.
