General ⇒ User settings stored in which files?

[losmaxos]

Hi everyone!

My question: in which file(s) does TexnicCenter store the user settings?
(The stuff selected under Tools/Options,Customize)

Context: I'm trying to avoid making all the settings again
after reinstalling Windows and TexnicCenter.

Thanks in advance for any help!

All the settings are stored in the registry. TeXnicCenter 2.0, for instance, uses the HKCU\Software\ToolsCenter\TeXniCenterNT registry key.

Thanks a lot Sergiu!
Your hint solves my problem

I'm still using Windows XP, I found the key there is

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software
ToolsCenter
TeXnicCenter
