Fresh Daz Install Questions

I’m going to be building a new computer and will be installing a fresh copy of Daz v4.9 (x64) but would like to retain my settings, viewport layout etc.  I know you can save a profile so you can revert to your favourite layout if it ever resets or changes, but where are these files located?  Is it simply a matter of copying them over into the new install?

Also, my current version was done as a 4.7 install, updated to 4.8 then updated to v4.9.  It works fine, kept all my configuration settings etc.  However, on my workstation at work, my fresh v4.9 install constantly gets the Stopped Working (see attached) message when I exit the program.  Every… single… time…  My upgraded version at home never gets this.  Would it be advisable to install v4.7, then run the upgrade to v4.8 then the v4.9 installer (I have all three of these downloaded)?

Are there any other items I should remember to do when I transfer to my new system?  I hate the Out-Of-Box layout with v4.9 and definitely want my current layout, so those configurations are pretty important to me to retain.

Suggestions appreciated.

    Your settings are saved in C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\DAZ 3D\Studio4 (except for the content directory locations -- if you have a lot there are scripts to import and export them here:  http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/scripting/api_reference/samples/start#directory_mapping ; ).

    So I'm getting very close to being ready to bring my new box to life.  Once the last hardware piece is here, I can image it and be up and running.  That brings me to my question:  Is there a way to sort my Product Library to show me the items I've purchased (like LAMH) that are installed as stand-alone installers?  So far I've remembered LAMH and Content Cataloger Easy, but I know there are more, I just can't remember.  Since all my content resides on a seperate drive from Windows, all the installed content will still be there, I'm guessing I'll just need to reindex the library in my fresh install of Daz.  However, that won't do anything for those other items I've mentioned.  They need to be reinstalled.

    I'm tryng to avoid manually going through 118 pages of products and trying to figure out from the title if it falls into this category.

    Ok, checking the list of serial numbers I have, I know I need to reinstall these 4 at least:

    Content Package Assist
    Look at my Hair
    Measure Metrics
    Genesis Generation X
