    All of your Allegro configuration settings are stored inside of the PCBENV Directory which is created when you execute Allegro for the first time. If you want to restore your previous configuration from the old account you will need to copy the entire contains of the PCBENV Directory from the old account to the new account PCBENV Directory. This PCBENV Directory is normally located in your HOME Directory and a quick way to find out where that is open up a DOS Prompt (Start > Run > cmd). The HOME Directory is different for each login and you may need to login to the old account to locate it, depending on your permissions.

    Hope this helps,
