how do I migrate (export and import) my ftp profiles to my new pc?

I don’t use the NppFTP plugin, but most plugins store their data in the ...\plugins\Config folder, so I’d guess NppFTP does as well.

You can probably locate that folder by putting this in your Windows Explorer address bar and pressing Enter:

%appdata%\Notepad++\plugins\Config

Confirmed: there is a subfolder, %AppData%\Notepad++\plugins\Config\NppFTP which contains multiple files as well as a Cache folder under that. If you want the settings, you just need to copy the %AppData%\Notepad++\plugins\Config\NppFTP\NppFTP.xml to the new pc – the other files are just “certificates” and “known hosts” which will be automatically generated the first time you connect to a given site; and the Cache\ subfolder is just for holding the local copies of the remote files you are editing.
