Copy workspace to another computer?

[Pixelpaddler]

Please help me locate where my custom workspaces are stored. I want to copy several I created on my desktop to my laptop. Have looked extensively without success.

The ability to create customized workspaces and quickly jump between them was a major leap forward in PS. I appreciate very much how the CS6 migration grabbed my workspaces from CS5. Now I want to copy them to my laptop, too.

Thank you,

Doug

You did not say if a mac or windows machine.

On windows locaton of workspaces

Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings/Workspaces

Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings/Workspaces (Modified)

Mac

Users/[user name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CS5Settings/WorkSpaces

Sorry, forgot to clarify Mac, forgot forums are now merged. Also forgot to specify CS6 but I see the locations you cite work with CS6 too. Thank you very much.

I'm wondering if the export settings also exports workspaces. I'll need to check it.

Thanks!!

Do you have to put the workspace in both folders on the new computer?

Guys, it's much more simple than that

Joel, the preset manager does not have a drop down for workspace, just brushes, swatches, gradients, styles, patterns, etc.

I have a few computers so it would be nice to save the workspace and share and load the workspace easily. I also teach and we spend the first portion creating a workspace when I would just have them load a workspace

It would be great to have this feature.  It has been 10+ years of people requesting this as I know it was asked about before 2012 and Adobe still hasn't created a sync workspace feature.  They did for a minute, but then stopped it. 

How can Adobe be so into the 'cloud' thing and try to coherse you into saving so much to it but still not have workspaces which are pivotal to professionals that have supported adobe for decades?
