Thank you for this suggestion. Patch My PC Publisher now includes Import Settings and Export Settings options that allow you to back up your Publisher configuration, migrate it to another server, or restore it for disaster-recovery purposes.
Production releases Publisher 2.1.99.0, which fixed backup restoration and settings.xml importing, and Publisher 3.0.1.0, which further hardened settings imports.
The exported configuration includes enabled products, publishing options, schedules, alerts, and Advanced settings. Some device-specific items—such as credentials, certificates, custom scripts, and locally referenced files—must be reconfigured or copied separately after migration.
For more information, see our Backup and Restore documentation.

I would like to extend this idea to following:
Implement either API's og powershell module, so to make it possible to manage PMP remotely.
Perhaps this will also solve the publisher single user issue
