How to transfer my ships to a new computer?

I recently built a new PC, and transferred all of my games to it. However, when I transferred FTL to my new computer, I found that all the ships that I had unlocked were now gone. I have a non-steam copy bought directly from the website, so I simply copied the entire folder from my old computer to my new one, thinking that it would all come along. This does not seem to be the case, however.

How do I transfer all of my unlocked ships to my new computer, without having to unlock them again?

Solution 1:

FTL save data on Windows Vista and above is located at C:\Users\{your user name}\Documents\my games\fasterthanlight.
To move your save files you need to transfer the fasterthanlight folder to your new PC in your documents\my games directory.
