Dragon saves the configuration you created during setup in nsdefaults.ini. If you set up your installation for
Roaming user profiles, there is also a file called roamingdef.ini. These files are located in:
C:\ProgramData\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking14.
The .ini file(s) contains custom settings that you can apply to each of the Dragon installations you deploy. Retrieve
nsdefaults.ini (and roamingdef.ini, if applicable) and copy them to a directory you can access from the
other client computers.
Note: To add or change settings in the .ini files after you complete your initial installation, see
“Natspeak.exe Command Line Options” on page 64. Otherwise, proceed to “Overview—Installing the
Dragon client with initial settings” on page 67.
