Description of the new feature / enhancement

PowerToys has many settings and I have many computers. This is a problem.

Are there any options for cloud save/sync settings? No matter where PT is installed the settings files are located "AppData\Local\Microsoft\PowerToys".

A full-blown feature to support this would be awesome, but other solutions would work.

The simplest might be an export/import for all options.

I personally would love it to be synchronized/integrated with my Microsoft account.

Scenario when this would be used?

PowerToys has many settings and I have many computers. If I change a setting, I need to change it on many other machines. Some settings take many clicks to get to, and require a specific value.

Another reason this is an issue is that PowerToys "changes how you use Windows" and you really want that to be the same on each machine you use as easily as possible.
