New PC - Most painless way to get back up and running with Civil 3D

I'm getting a new desktop PC in a few weeks and will need to reinstall C3D 2013 to continue with ongoing projects (the 2014 release is still (probably) too far away to wait).

 

What is the most pain free way of doing this e.g. preserving right click customizations, CUI tweaks I've done, Civil 3D toolbox entries and customizations, workspaces etc etc?

 

I suspect there will not be an eqiuvalent to "Windows Easy Transfer" - obviously there should be........Smiley Frustrated

Anything in the CUIx file can simply be migrated by copying the CUIx file, this includes workspaces.

If by 'right-click customizations', you mean things in the menu, that should be in the CUIx file also.

Toolbox report settings are saved in:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Autodesk\LandXML Reporting\RepGenSettings.xml

Thanks for this - if I simply copy everything in the appdata\roaming path (see below) then that should pick up all relevant files shouldn't it?

My right-Click and toolbox modifications are shown in the screenshot and these are tedious to set uo from scratch so will the above trick work here too??
