As the title says. I have two laptops. One has Stellarium configured the way I like it. How can I transfer these setting to my second laptop that I just installed 25.1 on?

What OS? See 5. Files and Directories in guide.pdf.
Copy the (zipped) User directory from one to the other.

May not be possible if the computers are running different OSes.

Be careful synchronizing further changes.

I have no experience with Stellarium on Windows; only on a
system where the directory structure is simpler. Others will
probably give better advice.

For your purpose, copying only the config.ini file may suffice.

Thanks all. I have the second Win11 PC configured.
