Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No

Describe the solution you'd like
Instead of default configuration being C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu for Application Search extension, it should dynamically get the AppData folder.

Based on the current implementation, using $env:APPDATA\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu instead would work for Application Search extension, but this doesn't provide path clarity to be readable by everyone.

The above is one example, the suggestion is to have every extension that can have their settings exported/imported use dynamic configurations where possible to reduce errors when the config is loaded onto a new system.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Users will continue to manually update the configuration profile when exporting/importing the configuration to another system.

Additional context
The dynamic approach would allow configurations be re-used without further modifications.
