Where are the Visual Studio settings stored?

Question

I'm using visual studio 2013. The company I work for has changed domain names (eg from abc.com to ayebecee.com) which obviously means that a new login profile has to be created etc. Now I started up visual studio but all the addons I installed and settings are 'gone'. Basically I need to know where the settings and addons are stored so that I can copy them to my new windows profile.

Try copying the files over from the old profile in the following locations to your new username's profile:

From:
    C:\Users\[OldUSERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio
To:    
    C:\Users\[NewUSERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio

From:
    C:\Users\[OldUSERNAME]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio
To:
    C:\Users\[NewUSERNAME]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio
