took 10 sec:

edit:

nvm reread.

When I move PCs I tend do use an external HD to move all my FF files into a new POL folder that I make using the CDs. That way theres a lot less updating required. This will also copy across your macros

if you're using a 32 bit os you don't need the (x86) part.

All your macros and ingame settings are held in this file.

This can also be done without copying files. While on the Character select screen, press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Shift]+[ B ] to backup your macros to the server. Pressing [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Shift]+[ R ] restores them.
