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\NaturallySpeaking15
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 to a directory you
