Hello, I need to switch to a new machine. I save my workspace files under a designated directory, which has been transferred to the new machine. 

I am wondering if there is any important configuration file would need to copy over (e.g. some database connection, web connections, where those info stored?) and where usually to find the file?

I am using FME workbanch 2023.2.3.

Thanks.

Yes, you will need to move your connection storage. Under Tools > FME Options > Default Paths you will be able to see some paths, you will need to copy the files here to the new machine.
