Shortcuts don't work El Gato Streamdeck after moving to laptop *SOLVED*

I switch computers often (studio vs mobile). I export/import my vMix shortcuts & Streamdeck profile ... but the "Key/Control" mapping for the keys on the El Gato Streamdeck will be different depending on which computer it's plugged into, basically breaking all the key associations on the new computer.
I'm dealing with at least 62 vMix shortcuts (keeps growing), which are updated fairly frequently.
Anybody have a solution? Is there like some Streamdeck live config file I can copy and paste to overwrite the one on the laptop?
Thanks!

You need to do a full backup using the Streamdeck software (profile>backup all) from the old system to the new one, as well as export and re-import shortcuts . You would do the same thing if you had projects with different mappings.

BTW, I just ran through this with latest vMix update and Streamdeck update to make sure it was all working. My steps: 1. Comp 1: Export my vMix shortcut config file 2. Comp 1: Create my backup all from Streamdeck 3. Comp 1: Save my .vMix file 4. Wait for my Creative Cloud to sync those 3 files (*.vmix,*.config,*.streamDeckProfilesBackup) 5. Comp 2: Restore in Streamdeck the backup profile 6. Comp 2: Open same .vMix 7. Comp 2: Import vmix shortcut config file 8. Comp 2: Restart vMix Added info: I'm on Windows 10 and use a creative cloud drive and its folder mapped to the same drive letter on both machines (v:\Creative Cloud\), and put all my inputs and resources under that location. Also useful, because I send my *.vmix and *.streamDeckProfilesBackup and vMix shortcut *.config there too. Wish I could just have a live config file for Streamdeck & one for vMix shortcuts that was synced across both machines live, but using a 'Backup All' under Streamdeck profile and exporting out the shortcut *.config is working for me.
