Some options belong to the Library (metadata.db), for those: create a new library with the existing structure ticked. Copy the entire New folder.

Other options are in the Calibre configuration directory (some of these are Path dependent). IIRC Plugins will need to be re-installed (but the settings will have been retained)

Where can I find the configuration directory?
