Switching MFS2020 from MS Store to Steam, how to export the control and view profile?

[CarriedGTA]

As title.
I’m currently using MFS2020 with XPG, and I just bought the Steam edition, therefor I want to export the control profile and view profile from the Store edition to the Steam edition. I did some search and found the location of the saved custom view and wgs folder under the SystemAppData.
However, I’m having two issues:

1. Which folder/file under the wgs folder should I make a copy of to export? I didn’t find any XML files, instead, there are some binary files I believe.
2. For the custom view located in LocalCache, the cameras config files has a ‘lock’ symbol on them, I can not copy or move them.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   

So my question is, how can I export them to the Steam version? I know in the MS Store version the control profiles are stored in the cloud, are there any ways to import the cloud saved into Steam? If this option is impossible, what can I do to copy/export them manually?
Thank you.
