Is there a way to save the options for exporting on USB?
If I use a freshly formatted USB, I always have to make the options I want to show visible again.
For example I want to use RGB Colors and it is alway set to blue on a new stick.

Unfortunately no.
These settings are saved as entries on a special file on the USB stick itself.
That's how the CDJ ecosystem works.
So, if your USB drive has no such special file in place, VirtualDJ creates an empty one with all the "default" values of Rekordbox (the default values that Rekordbox USB format expects) that then you can edit.
If your USB drive HAS a special file in place then VirtualDJ reads and edits that file.

ok. so if I use Rekordbox just to "create" the stick with the saved settings VDJ will use this?

Yes, but as far as I know, Rekordbox behaves the same.
If you format or use a blank USB drive it will start from the same defaults, and then you edit the options from there.
Therefore it will be the same procedure (that's required once per USB stick after formating it)

in Rekordbox you can set your desired preferences in advance (export mode/preferences/DJ system) and they are saved. whenever you use a freshly formatted usb they ask if you want to create a stick with their database and rekordbox uses the saved settings.
it is something on my wishlist for a later version :)
maybe for version VDJ 2026/2027
I really appreciate your work and I'm really happy with the things VDJ can do...
