Where Does ckb-next Store Profiles and Settings?
ckb-next Corsair profiles and daemon settings on Linux.
Last updated
ckb-next keeps device profiles, macros and daemon options in its config home on Linux. Animations reference hardware by model.
Copying the folder moves lighting between machines with the same keyboards. Daemon must run for profiles to apply. Exact subfiles may vary by release.
Where ckb-next stores this, by platform
~/.config/ckb-next/
Profiles plus daemon settings here. System daemon config sits in /etc when installed as a service. Copy with the daemon stopped.
Frequently asked questions
Where are ckb-next profiles?
Inside the config dir above as profile files. Export from the GUI for sharing; raw copies work between identical devices.
Profiles vanished after update. What now?
Check for a versioned backup beside the config dir; upgrades sometimes migrate formats. Reimport the exported profile before recreating macros.
