How to Backup Quicken Settings?

I'm getting ready to re-install Windows 10 and would like to avoid having to manually set up Quicken again. Is there some way to backup and restore the Quicken SETTINGS (not my data files -- that's easy)? Perhaps just copy everything in:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Quicken\config
? Or, perhaps everything in the directory above it?

I copied everything from the
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Quicken
folder and that seems to have worked just fine. I had to re-enter my Quicken ID, but that was to be expected.0

I think that's the only folder that contains Quicken user settings.Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 100

Also C:\ProgramData\Quicken\ConfigIt appears that only the file QUICKEN.INI in that folder contains user settings which might be affected.

Hi @isonclubikin ,
When you do a Manual Backup of your Quicken Data File, then restore the Manual Backup, all my settings are there.
