Where are settings and file sets stored?


Recommended Posts

Hello! I want to transfer my Affinity DESIGNER to another computer so that all the settings, styles, brushes, assets and more are saved, in which way can I find this? I want to copy files from one computer and upload to another so as not to export all sets and settings

Both don't work in 2022 for macros?  

Any ideas on where the macros are kept? 

 

Just lost about 6 years worth of settings after upgrading to Version 2.
