    Hi Ya'll! The laptop I am using to control my CNC Router is crapping out. Where do I find the Open Builds program and machine setting to copy and put on the new laptop? Can't seem to find them anywhere. Remember, I just make stuff and am not that savvy when it comes to such things, so please be gentle. Thanks!

    Grbl settings are stored on your controller. There's almost nothing much the application stores (job log, custom keyboard assignments but thats easy to redo, and any custom macros you may have they have an export option on right clicking the macro)

    DONT reload grbl settings when you connect a new PC - its already on the controller, not the PC, don't load anything and overwrite your working setup
