How to export VSCode settings?

Question

As posted here How can I export settings?, everyone insists on using Settings Sync, which would be fine if I wasn't forced to use GitHub by the plugin (which is explicitly denied on my computer). Is there any way to either do this manually, or to redirect the plugin to use an alternative git repo for this purpose?

For Windows:

1. copy keybindings.json, settings.json files and snippets folder from C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Code\User.
2. and copy extensions folders from C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app to your new machine at the same locations.
