How can I transfer all my Resolve preferences and presets to another Resolve installation on a second PC?

I don't think we can yet. (Given that some are machine/hardware specific, we may never have this option.)

But it takes only a minute or so to set them up.
My Biases:

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.

Copy an existing database with current preferred settings, system and project both, rename it appropriately and then connect it to the new system. Once that's done, you can delete any unneeded projects.
