Backing up Preferences

Backing up your Preferences backs up your custom brushes, colors, and settings so that they can be restored if needed. This can be helpful when setting up Sketchbook on a new device, or in cases when you experience a device loss or a corrupted Preferences file that cannot be recovered.
