Hi Juraj,

It's %appdata%\Moi - backing up %appdata%\Moi will back up all the settings that MoI will save in moi.ini , and your license key, and any mods and additional command scripts that you have installed there.

The program files folder does have all the default command scripts like Line, sphere, etc... but those do not change after it is installed so you can back that up just once or back up the installer.

So if you sync %appdata%\Moi on your other machine to %appdata%\Moi on your main one that should copy your settings and customizations over to the other machine.

If you make it portable and contained privately inside of just one single folder you will keep on running into the problem where a new install won't see all the customizations and settings automatically because you're not storing them in a common central location that will be shared between all installs.
So making it portable is what is preventing your new install from being automatically synched up.
If you want everything synced, being portable does not help with that it actually messes it up when you install a new version.
Do not make it portable and make %appdata%\Moi to be synced between different machines. If you do that you should get the same settings and customizations on everything including new installs.
