Hello Meecc,

Please go to Start->Run. Paste the following line:

for MC 64 bit:
%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\TS Support\MultiCharts64\HotKeys

for MC 32 bit:
%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\TS Support\MultiCharts\HotKeys

You need to copy the files from the appeared folder to the respective location on your second PC (while all MultiCharts processes are not running).

Hello,

In order to transfer the hot keys settings to another PC you need to create a Backup file and check the ‘Application Settings’ box.
For more info about transferring user info to another PC please see this page.
