Recovering Ableton preferences?

Post by Gothboy » Sun Aug 16, 2020 2:47 am

One of my OS drives went out requiring a fresh install of an older OS running Live 9.7.7 but the settings presets and sample folders are all gone and have to be redone. Is there a way to recover those settings from the backups I have? I have 2 backup drives that would have those wherever they are stored in Ableton. Just need the how and where the setting would be and where They should go.
Mac Pro Quad Core Intel Xeon 2.8 GHz. 16 GB RAM
Mountain Lion 10.8.5/El Capitan 10.11.6
Live Suite 9.1.7 and 10.1.9
