Why are you reinstalling MC so often?  If you are downloading a new build just install over the top.  Assuming there's a good reason for it then View Schemes are stored in the library so backup and restore library will do that.  For the other settings you could try backing up the registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver).

Warning - Don't mess with the registry unless you know what you are doing.

Caveat - There's no guarantee that this will work.

thanx, i will try with the registry.
the reason for re-installing so often is problems  with pc and user rights, not updating.

another question:
my girlfriend is the second user on my pc. do i have to install mc by logged on as administrator or as one of the two users? i had some problems with plugins.

thanx

I'm no expert on this and therefore my advice is to always install software when logged on as an administrator.  Otherwise you just never know if it's installed properly.  If you are reinstalling software so often due to problems I'm surprised you are not already taking this approach.
