(For the record, I'm not sure if this is the correct forum)

Hey guys, got a few questions. 

For example, I have a laptop and another desktop pc  that have the same exact things on it, they're just different machines.

 

1. Say I open a uPlay game on my desktop pc, for this example, I'll use Rainbow Six Siege. If I were to say change a setting like mouse sens, key binds, or graphical settings, will the settings also change on the laptop or are the settings specified for that laptop? 

Another thing to note is that I bought R6 through steam and I use Uplay to play it. Will, that effect anything?

 

2. Same exact question as above but instead for Steam games like GTA V or PUBG, if I change settings like mouse sensor or any other graphical settings, will settings change as well on the other device? 

 

Thanks all. 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: say that question number 2 isn't true and doesn't work, do the config files of the games contain all the settings, like graphical settings or keybind settings?

Could you clarify what you mean by that?

Nope, it's only for that device.

I mean if I were to change a setting on my laptop, like mouse sens. on a uplay game, will that setting also change on the same exact uplay game on my other pc.

Ah, I see. Thanks for explaining :) 

As far as I know, if you were to change a setting it would not change on your other PC.

ok since that this won't work for uplay or steam, is there an easy way for me to transfer game settings over different devices?
