Where Does Filmora Save Projects and Drafts?
Filmora projects folder in Documents with .wfp project files and auto-save drafts on Windows.
Last updated
Filmora saves edit projects as .wfp files defaulting into Documents, with auto-save drafts alongside for crash recovery. Source clips stay wherever you imported them from and are referenced, not copied.
Moving a project without its media breaks every timeline link. Back up the project folder plus the media tree, or archive from inside the app so paths resolve.
Where Filmora stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Wondershare Filmora
Projects are .wfp files with auto-save versions nearby. Exact subfolder names vary by Filmora version, so confirm on your install. Media files live outside this tree wherever you imported them, and must travel with the project.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up a Filmora project properly?
Use the archive project option so media copies next to the .wfp file, or manually copy the project folder plus every referenced media folder. The .wfp alone reopens to red missing-media warnings.
Where are Filmora auto-saves after a crash?
Next to your project files in the Documents tree above. Reopen Filmora and it offers the newest auto-save draft.
