it is quite possible that the actual VST settings were actually somewhere in the Windows registry rather than Audition's settings folder. The vstpluginmgr_settings.xml only holds the actually list of installed VST plugins, I suspect, not their individual settings. SteveG probably knows the answer but he is away at the moment.
Well I've come back, but I'm not sure that I can tell you definitively, although I suspect that the answer is a horrible combination of several things. If the session file points to a specific location where settings are saved, and anything at all about that alters in a new installation, then they simply won't be found because the OS simply isn't intelligent. It wouldn't be, though - bloody Microsoft wrote it! So basically Suite Spot is, I'm sure, quite correct, even though he hasn't found it yet. If anybody can though, I suspect it's him.
The only other thing to add is that there's definitely a difference between saving presets as Audition presets using plugins, and using the preset mechanism in the plugin itself. I would have expected that the Audition settings would be quite discoverable, but if they were stored as Native presets, that wouldn't necessarily apply at all.
