Where Does AYANEO Space Store Settings and Game Libraries?
AYASpace holds its settings under AppData on the handheld, while the game library itself lives wherever you installed the games.
Last updated
AYASpace splits its data in two. The app settings (profiles, controller maps, TDP presets) sit in the Windows AppData tree on the handheld. The games themselves stay wherever you installed them, and AYASpace only keeps pointers.
One honest caveat. The exact settings folder name shifts between AYASpace versions, so open AppData and match the AYASpace entry you actually see rather than trusting casing from memory. Back up the settings folder before major AYASpace updates, since major versions sometimes migrate it.
Where AYANEO Space stores this, by platform
%APPDATA%\AYASpace
TDP profiles, keymaps, and library pointers live here. Folder casing varies by AYASpace version, so browse %APPDATA% and use the AYASpace match you find. Close the app before copying.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move AYASpace settings to a fresh Windows install?
Copy the settings folder with AYASpace closed, then restore it to the same AppData path after reinstalling. Game files live separately, so relink the library folders inside AYASpace afterwards.
Where do I change which folders AYASpace scans for games?
Inside AYASpace settings, where every library folder is listed explicitly. The app never moves your games when you change these entries, it only scans them.
