Is there any way to transfer settings for servers and payment in SCC when you change computers?

I'm on a new hard drive and clean re-install for everything.

I've managed to transfer my shops and themes but the boxes for payment and servers are empty.

The payment one is my major headache as I had the special API details in there for Paypal Express and I have no idea what they were.

So is there a file somewhere that might have that stored?

That information is stored in the registry for security reasons. I am not sure if it is possible to decode the data either as it would all be hashed.

The PayPal info can be retrieved from PayPal's Website in the Settings area.
