Is there an easy way to export all my settings, like styles, hotkeys and autocorrect adjustments from word 2013 and import them to word 2016 that's on another computer?

Styles and hotkeys are stored in templates, so you can transfer your template to the other computer. If you haven't selected a particular template, customizations are stored in the Normal template which you can also copy.

AutoCorrect entries are stored in *.acl files by language. See http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tip_pages/autocorrect_utility_manager.html.
