Backup settings for moving to a new PC

[failxontour]

Hello everyone

this question might have been answered a thousand times now but I got a bit lost inside the discussions and documentations. I wanna export my Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign settings these include my workspaces, color groups, brushes, forms pretty much a lot of assets I would still need, I read that Adobe Sync was disabled after CC 2015 this PC had multiple versions of CC installed since 2015. The appdata folder is kinda full now, and I can't not tell which folders I would need to backup. I could do a full backup but I would kindly wanna know which in specific i needed to do a backup for. Our Administrator is busy right now and honestly don't wanna bother him with a simple issue I could resolve myself.

Best regards

Felix

just use each program's 'sync' to store (and later retrieve) those items from adobe's servers.

or google: <program name> export preferences and shortcuts

kglad​ Thanks for the answer, Sync settings with Adobe Creative Cloud also should have mentioned I already looked at this user guide. But couldn't find the appropiate section for this in Illustrator, as Photoshop after version CC (2015) and InDesign don't support Adobe Sync anymore.

If your answer was about smth. else I'm sorry but It would be great if you could send me a snapshot of the option or a link to the documentation as I'm not to experinced in backing up and managing my workspaces.

you're correct.  sync settings have been removed from some adobe programs.

here's info for migrating settings: Sync application settings with Creative Cloud
