 Copy the folder .\Ember Media Manager\Profiles.   

I exactly tried that, it retained the my movie and tv list, but did not retain the emm configuration settings    

It must, every profile have it's own settings, you can check in explorer

Edit: if it's not was an very old version you had before, then it has no profiles and only a settings folder 

Ok - so I deleted the profile folder created by new install and then copied the old profile and it worked. Overwriting the new one with old does not seem to work.
