Presets not appearing in Export Panel

Hello, a quick problem for you.

I just customized my workspace in CC 20.0.3 and saved it as a workspace name FletcherDurham2019. I'd like to apply those settings to my laptop as well.

So I went to Edit > Presets > Export/Import Presets...

When the panel pops up, my newly saved workspace does not show up.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Fletcher

Workspaces aren't among the presets made for the Preset Export Manager. That's more for brushes, adjustments, actions, etc. (Migrate presets, actions, and settings)
There is a folder in your system that holds the workspace presets. With more information as regards your OS, perhaps we can help direct you to the correct location to find that folder.

I am having a similar issue, except in my case the only preset that shows up is a workspace. My brushes, tools, patterns etc are not there. I definitely have them in Photoshop, but manually loaded each one from a saved copy I use to back things up. Would manually importing/exporting presets cause an issue with this system?

    It looks like you have an installtion problem there should some to select if you have any preset in your Photohops application data. If you do not have any it may bet empty. In that case use  the  Import  tab and see if you can import presets from any prior versione of photoshop. Select prior verion usere application data foldete for Priob Photoshop version and import the one you want imported.

    I don't know why your list is empty but a workspace is no preset. It won't appear there anyway.

    Assuming Windows your workspaces are located at

    c:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Settings\WorkSpaces\

    For some reason workspaces do not seem to be listed in export  theyt are in import though.
