Looks like there is a config and cache location in their docker scripts. The easiest way to make a docker application portable is to bind mount the config and cache. That way you have access to the actual files and could copy them to your windows partition.
If you're already using a volume for that data, I think it becomes a bit trickier. I know technically you can move or copy volumes, but I've never tried. Although you could still bind mount a random directory and still copy the files out.
