TL;DR: Copy the file %AppData%\Far Manager\Profile\highlight.db to the new machine.


See FarManager 3: export settings AND history on what these .db files contain.


Example:

I've created a file highlighting named abc for the files matching *.qwertyuiozzz.

   ╔══════════════════════════ Files highlighting ══════════════════════════╗
   ║ Name: abc                                                             ↓║
   ╟────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╢
   ║ [x] Mask: *.qwertyuiopzzz                                             ↓║
   ╟──────────────────┬─────────────────────────────────────────────────────╢

The SQLite DB contains this:

SQLite: table_values
key_id │ name                        │ value
───────┼─────────────────────────────┼─────────────────────────
2      │ Title                       │ abc
2      │ UseMask                     │ 1
2      │ Mask                        │ *.qwertyuiopzzz
2      │ UseDate                     │ 0
2      │ DateType                    │ 0
2      │ DateTimeAfter               │ 0
2      │ DateTimeBefore              │ 0
...
