If your old version is at least 3.7, then you can do this:

• Use File -> Export -> Install -> Installed software items to file in your old installation to create a file containing the currently installed features.
• Use File -> Import -> Install -> Software items from file in your new installation. Point it to the file from above and make sure to check "Install latest versions".
