Is There a Way To Back Up Plugin Layouts?

Hi;
 
Experimenting with CWB and with the help of some folks here started to custom manage my plug in menus.  It's going well so far, but when I go into the Plug In layout editor it asks me to enter a custom name for my scheme, which is cool.  I called it "John's Effects".  I got to wondering that if I ever needed to wipe my HDD clean and/or have to reinstall CWB sometime in the future I would have to redo this somewhat tedious task of re organizing my plugs unless I can somehow back up that file for "John's Effects" on a flash drive.  Then, all I (might) have to do is re install that file and I'd have my custom organization back.  Of course, I'm assuming this and don't know if this would be the case.  But if it would, where would that file (John's Effects) be located?  When I drill down the directory tree it seems to lead to a mysterious folder in my Network area of my OS Drive (C:/) which I cannot locate doing a file search. Could some computer ace tell me and easy way to locate this file, assuming that backing it up would do as I'm thinking (hoping) it will.
 
Also, why am I no longer getting email notifications when somebody responds to my posts?  Is this something that went away with Bandlab?  I DO have "Subscribe" selected.
 
Thanks;
John B

    The plug-in layout path is specified in Preferences > File > Folder Locations.

    So, it's in the Users folder.  I couldn't see that far back in the directory tree, but I did see everything from app data on.  Thanks, scook.  I'll check that out next session.
