Where Does AIMP Store Its Profile?
AIMP stores its profile, settings, and audio library in AppData for a standard install. Portable installs keep the same files in a Profile folder next to the executable.
Last updated
A standard AIMP install uses Roaming AppData AIMP as the profile root. It contains settings files, the AudioLibrary folder, and user added skins and plugins data.
If a Profile folder exists beside AIMP.exe, the player runs in portable mode and writes there instead. Skins from the catalog go under the Skins subfolder of the active profile or the program folder.

Frequently asked questions
How do I back up AIMP settings?
Close AIMP, then copy the full AIMP folder from Roaming AppData. For portable installs copy the Profile folder instead.
Where are custom skins stored?
In the Skins subfolder of the active profile. If a skin does not appear, confirm whether the install is using AppData or portable Profile mode.
