how to save settings in cad 2011 prior to re-install

Hello, running a small office here, and would really appreciate some assistance in the re-install process.

What is the best way to save or export all settings that were configured prior to a re-install so that the new install will work with the same as before.

Settings like cursor size, dynamic snap settings, printers, path locations, layout apperance, etc. We have both a autocad 2011 and autocad 2010 lt license. Is there a solution for both?

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

Most settings is in your autocad SUPPORT Folder, save it in a flash drive and later overwrite your newly installed.

Also need to go to OPTIONS, Profiles tab, highlight your profile and export your settings; save it to your flash drive and that is about all.

Thanks for your help, will give it a shot and let you know how it goes.

Do i need to create a profile of current settings before exporting or does acad do this automatically?
