Will copy and pasting the SDK folder from one PC to another PC works in Android Studio?

I have two computers(say PC1 and PC2).

  1. I had downloaded android studio and installed in both of the computers.
  2. In both computers sdk is located in C:\Users\userName\AppData\Local\Android\sdk.

  3. Now using sdk manager i'll update(i'll install some packages) SDK present in PC1.

  4. Now If i replace the sdk folder present in PC2 with the new updated SDK folder present in PC1, will it work ? Can i use new features that i installed in PC1 in PC2 also; or, do i need to update SDK seperately in both PC's
