Is it possible to recover Visual Studio 2010 syntax color settings that weren't exported?

I put an SSD in my machine and started over with a fresh OS. I forgot to export my Visual Studio color scheme first. I still have the old spinning hard drive in an enclosure. If I run VS off the old drive, it doesn't show my old colors, so I can't export them. Is there any way to grab the color settings out of the Visual Studio install directory on the old drive?

Take a look in your user's documents folder on the old hard drive. Visual Studio saves its settings in the current user's Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Settings folder. You should be able to import the color settings from the file there.
