saving the layout and other interface customizations

If I wanted to backup and restore my layout and interface customizations (for use within the same major revision number), is there a straightforward way to do that? It's not a big deal to just run through the list manually, but if there's a better way that would be handy to know. I know you can do Windows > Workspace > "Save Layout As", but it just jams it off into the depths of DS somewhere rather then letting you specify the location, so I would need to know where everything goes (and know that the rules aren't going to change when I'm not looking) to track it all down and back it up for when things change or when I want to transfer it to another PC.

    On Windows 7 it's in C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\DAZ 3D\Studio4

    which files in that folder? Just the layout.dse and layout.dsx, and do I just make sure studio is stopped and copy them in/out and that's it, or do I need to do anything else?

    The .dsx files are the current layout, etc. If you save the layout or style they'll be in the subfolders "User layouts" and "User Styles"

    I saved a copy of the "user layouts" folder I created, and see I can now select my layout from Select Window > Workspace > Select Layout, then click the Layout dropdown and choose the name of the layout you previously saved. Thanks!
