Rivets,

Back in the days of Win 3.1x it was pretty much possible - nearly everything was configured with .ini text files. Just copy the ini files over and hey presto, all the settings were back.

There were a few minor usability, stability, functionality, capacity (etc.) problems with those early versions of Windows, though!
