Long-shot: Retreiving vault configuration (plug-ins, hotkeys, settings etc.) from a 'dead' laptop that has 'sync settings' turned off

Help
1

My laptop ‘died’ and I’ve loaded my vault on an alternative laptop. However, the settings were not synced and so not present anymore. Before reconfiguring the vault, I was wondering if it is possible to retreive the settings somehow.

Things I have tried

I have tried to find an obsidian settings file and plug-in folder in my onedrive, however, moving to Obsidian Sync, I think my folder entire vault moved to a local drive on my laptop that is not booting anymore and will be sent for repairs.

Is there any way to retreive settings related to hotkeys, plug-ins, etc.?

I look forward to hearing if this is possible so I can start reconfiguring my vault if it is not possible anymore.

What I’m trying to do

You should realize that the Obsidian settings etc are kept in a folder which is normally invisible. When looking for it in onedrive, make sure you can see invisible files and folders. You are looking for an invisible folder with a name similar to Obsidian.

Thank you for the quick reply, I have found it but unfortuntately it seems to contain the current settings only. I will reconfigure the settings.

Thank again,

Opi
