how to move jenkins_home with all jobs and settings in windows

i have a jenkins installation running in a tomcat server, and i kept the default settings so my jenkins home is in C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile.jenkins.

after creating my jobs, i now want to relocate my jenkins_home and added 

<Environment name="JENKINS_HOME" value="D:/jenkins_home/" type="java.lang.String"/>

to my context.xml of the tomcat.

This works but its a "virgin" installation of jenkins, and i would like to keep the jobs, settings and users. What could i do?

Just move the old jenkins folder to the new location and restart Jenkins.

I just did that on a linux (via yum) installation.

Should be working the same on Windows.
