      Is there a possibility to export the settings of f.lux, and to restore them on another machine? I meticulously adjusted my settings on a laptop, and would like to use the same settings on another computer.

      There is some registry key HKCU/Software/Michael Herf/flux/Preferences which came to my attention, but I am unsure about the scope of this.

      Furthermore I discovered C:/Users/<user>/AppData/Local/FluxSoftware/Flux/, but am uncertain about the relevance of its contents regarding my question.

      I did some searches ("transfer", "export", "settings" etc.) here in the forum, but I found nothing appropriate. Furthermore, I googled "transferring f.lux settings", which resulted in nothing truly trustworthy. So I am asking for some more definite clarification here.

      This is with f.lux 4.134.

        @friedrichr yes the HKCU/.../Preferences key has essentially all the relevant settings from within the app, nothing is saved to the filesystem except for caching feeds from our website.

        Technically you could include "flux" if you don't want the updater to tell you about the new version you downloaded, but "Preferences" is the simplest one.
