Transferring saved workspaces, brushes, scripts, etc. from CS6 to CC on a PC using Windows 7

Question

This is what I came up with...
Transfer saved workspaces, brushes, scripts, etc. from CS6 (Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop) to CC on a PC using Windows 7.
Go to start menu < computer < (OS) C: drive < documents and settings* < user (your user name) < application data** < adobe < adobe illustrator (or adobe photoshop)***
*To see the ‘documents and settings’ folder, I had to go to start menu < control panel < folder options –  select view tab – uncheck hide protected operating system files (recommended). The computer will prompt you to go ahead, say ‘yes’ then hit apply.
** There is another folder above ‘application data’ named ‘appdata’, this is not the correct folder.
* & ** I could not access these folders no matter what user settings I selected or logged in as administrator. I did an internet search and found the following successful:
If the the folder denies you access to share… right click on the folder < select properties < select the ‘security’ tab < click the ‘edit’ button < select any and all users named ‘everyone’ < select ‘remove’
After I removed the ‘everyone’ users, I was able to successfully share the folder to my user and access.
*** I did not have an ‘adobe indesign’ folder, scrolling down the list it was labeled just as ‘indesign’. So was ‘bridge’, ‘dreamweaver’, etc.
INDESIGN: Below are my exact paths for my particular system:
< adobe < Indesign (inside this folder I have three folders: Version 7.0, Version 8.0 and Version 9.0 – which correlates? to CS5, CS6 and CC.) < Version 8.0 < en_US < Workspaces (inside this folder I have two files of each workspace – for example named: ‘xyz.xml’ and ‘xyz_CurrentWorkspace.xml’, I don’t why there are two similarly named files??, so I copied both and pasted both (and it worked.)
< copy the workspaces you want to bring into CC
>Go back, to the Indesign folder and then to < Version 9.0 < en_US < Workspaces and paste the workspaces.
I did the same for scripts: copied from the Version 8.0 folder to the Version 9.0 folder *Please note that, with updated versions, your scripts may not work…
< Version 8.0 < en_US < scripts < scripts panel (copy scripts.)
You can do the same for Greps, Glyphs, Find/Change, etc.
I copied entire folders over from the en_US folders: ‘Indesign Shortcut Sets’ and ‘Glyph sets’
PHOTOSHOP: Below are my exact paths for my particular system: * please note I also have a ‘photoshop’ folder in the ‘adobe’ folder, which did not have what I was looking for to carry over.
< adobe < adobe photoshop CS6 < adobe photoshop CS6 settings – copy all files < go back to adobe < adobe photoshop CC < adobe photoshop CC settings – paste all files

To turn off UAC, go to the Control Panel, then User Accounts.
Under the header, "Make changes to your user account", there is an entry titled "Change User Account Control Settings".
Pick it, and drag the slider all the way down to "Never Notify".
