Where Does ImageGlass Store Settings?
ImageGlass LocalAppData folder with igconfig.json, themes and layouts on Windows.
Last updated
ImageGlass keeps settings in igconfig.json inside its LocalAppData folder, with themes, layouts and language files in subfolders. Photos stay in your library and are never imported.
Version 9 moved things around versus the classic builds, so old guides point at stale paths. The config file remains the single source of truth for the current setup.
Where ImageGlass stores this, by platform

Holds igconfig.json plus Themes, Layouts and Languages subfolders. Exact internals vary by major version, so confirm on your install. Copy the folder with ImageGlass closed to migrate everything.
