Where Does Avast Secure Browser Store Its Profile?
Avast Secure Browser profile folders on Windows and macOS, and the version page that prints the running path.
Last updated
Avast Secure Browser is Chromium underneath, so it follows the Chromium data layout under an AVAST Software folder. The profile itself sits in a Default folder, with the bank mode and extension data stored as siblings inside the same tree.
There is no Linux desktop build, so Windows and Mac are the only paths. Confirm the exact folder on the version page of the running install before copying anything. Move the whole user data folder with the browser closed when migrating machines.
Where Avast Secure Browser stores this, by platform
%localappdata%\AVAST Software\Browser\User Data\Default
Bank mode and extension data sit beside Default in the same tree. Confirm on the version page if the folder is missing, since bundled installs can vary the root.
~/Library/Application Support/AVAST Software/Browser/User Data/Default
Same Chromium interior as Windows. Library is hidden, so use Go to Folder in Finder. No Linux desktop build exists, so there is no third path.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Avast Secure Browser profile folder?
Open the version page from the browser menu and read the Profile Path row. That path reflects the install actually running, which settles bundled versus standalone differences.
Is there an Avast Secure Browser data folder on Linux?
No. Avast ships the desktop browser for Windows and Mac only, so Linux users have no equivalent folder. Bank mode sessions never touch disk in a portable way regardless of platform.
