     @fiore "Don't you just wish there was some sort of central registry applications could store all of their settings in?"

     @fiore @nyanide
     It's complicated…
     When your Windows machine is a part of domain, users can have "roaming profiles" so their settings stay in sync no matter what computer they log into.
     And there are 3 directories under %HomePath%/AppData :
     Roaming — settings that are synced
     Local — things that aren't
     LocalLow — things used by software running in "protected mode", this used to be a thing in NT, offered a degree of isolation, not sure it's still used in modern Windows
