Moving to a new computer

Question

Hey pals, I just had to reset my OS and I saved my "Blender Foundation" folder inside my Program Files folder, so I thought that would be enough to have my settings and addons when I get a new Blender install.

It was not enough heheh, is there a way to restore my old addons with the "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.6\3.6\scripts\addons" folder?

Thanks for your time :)

    This is one of those things Blender can act like a conscious and alive software. Restoring preferences has never worked for me and for other people it works fine. I have do it manually since the first day I started using Blender. Every time I download a new Blender version, get a new computer, update my OS, I have to set Blender again from zero. At least the good side effect is that I have gotten used to working with less and less stuff, get rid of the excess.
