Easiest way to backup your config files from your Pi
I use the following to copy the config directory from my Pi to my Linux PC using the terminal (on my PC)
This will copy the complete config folder and files (the -r = recursive)...
Change: pi@raspberrypi to suit your Pi install, default might be pi@raspberrypi
Change: /home/Mike to your user folder (in windows this might be: C:/Users/Mike )
To copy the cfg file from my Linux box to the Pi...
CD to the folder containing your config files...
Open command terminal there, type:
Change pi@voron24b to suit your Pi install, default might be pi@raspberrypi

This video gives more options...
