Where are Visual Studio settings stored?

Question

I use visual studio 2013. The company I work with has changed the domain names (for example, from abc.com to ayebecee.com), which obviously means that you need to create a new login profile, etc. Now I started the visual studio, but all the add-ons that I installed and the settings are "gone." Basically, I need to know where the settings and add-ons are stored so that I can copy them to my new window profile.

Answer 1

Try copying files from the old profile in the following places to the new user profile:

From: C:\Users\[OldUSERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio To: C:\Users\[NewUSERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio From: C:\Users\[OldUSERNAME]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio To: C:\Users\[NewUSERNAME]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio 

Answer 2

** Update for the latest version **

For Visual Studio 2015 settings:

 %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Visual Studio 2015 

Answer 3

Make the export of the settings of your Visual Studio ... Tools → Import and Export Settings After that, you can import it to your VS, where you want to have these settings.
