History file is .xml so it is better for you to backup all files there except Screenshots and Tools folder. But ofc you could want to backup your screenshots too.

Win Vista or newer: %HOMEPATH%/Documents/ShareX
For WinXP it should be in My Documents.

Settings are in the *.json files. Just back them up and copy them to the target machine.

This didn't work for me, but using the export/import option in Application Settings worked
