Is there any way to transfer Vegas folder structure to a new computer

This might be a bit of a far-fetched idea, but I'm setting up base on a brand new computer. I have all my audio effects neatly categorized in folders in the Vegas explorer window on my previous computer. My question is if there is some way, some file I can copy over, that restores my folder structure without having to redo all of them all over again? (There's some 120+ audio effects collected over a couple years, that I'll have to go through.)

I've been snooping around in the AppData folders, but I can't see anything that immediately stands out. Is there someone much smarter than me that might know anything about this?

 

I have all of my effects transferred, and loaded on the new computer.
I'm using Vegas 18.

 

Thanks in advance.

Found a solution by trial and luck!

Under 'C:\Users\*Name*\AppData\Local\VEGAS Pro\18.0'
There lives a file named 'plugin_manager_cache.bin'. Copying this file from one computer to another restores the audio folder structure (as long as you have your effects transferred, and loaded first).

 

Sorry for creating just a pointless post, when I discovered it just some minutes later. But I hope if someone else comes into a similar situation in the future, they might find help in this post.
