Where Does Dalamud Store Plugin Configs?
Dalamud plugins keep configs under the XIVLauncher tree with dev plugins beside release ones.
Last updated
Dalamud stores plugin configurations inside the XIVLauncher data tree, one JSON file per plugin. Dev and testing plugins sit beside release ones in the same folders.
That placement ties plugin fate to launcher fate. Reinstalling XIVLauncher without copying the tree resets every plugin at once. Copy the pluginConfigs folder before wiping anything; the files are small and the setup time they save is not.
Where Dalamud stores this, by platform
%APPDATA%\XIVLauncher\pluginConfigs
Per-plugin settings as JSON files under the launcher tree. Copy with the game closed; reinstalling the launcher resets everything here.
%APPDATA%\XIVLauncher\devPlugins
Dev plugin builds beside release configs. Keep both folders together when migrating a development setup.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up my plugin settings?
Copy the pluginConfigs folder with the game closed. Settings travel per plugin, so a fresh install restores defaults for everything at once.
