Last updated
DiffMerge stores folder compare sessions and preferences in per-OS config locations. Saved sessions reopen file triples on demand. Prefs decide fonts, colors and rulesets.
Back up the config folder to move sessions. Exact filenames vary by release, so confirm inside prefs when paths differ. Copy with the app closed for clean state.

Frequently asked questions
How do I move DiffMerge sessions?
Copy the DiffMerge config folder with the app closed to the same path. Saved sessions plus prefs travel together. Reopen once to confirm.
Sessions missing after moving. Why?
Save the session explicitly from the app first. Open tabs alone do not persist. Keep session files where the config expects them.
