To recap, and by the way, thanks all for such rapid responses:

Copying the whole settings directory should do the trick, which is what I had 
told them to do earlier today, so this is fantastic news.

Thank you all for the rapid brainstorming.

Take care,
Sina

Hahhahaha I knew that Sina, I was talking about your student,
and somehow stupidly just assumed your student was female! don't ask me why 
...

In answer to your below desire for confirmation, affirmative would be my 
take, but I'm by know means the last nor definitive word on the subject!

Jackie is, however. she'll set ya straight. :)

The point about insuring the jaws versions are the same, even same build,
I think  is also a good one.
