Where Does Internxt Drive Sync Files Locally?
Where Internxt Drive keeps the local sync folder, logs and Electron config on Windows, Mac and Linux desktops.
Last updated
Internxt Drive splits state like most Electron sync clients: a sync folder you choose for your files, and an app data folder for login, preferences, logs and cache. The sync folder location is user set, so Preferences is the source of truth.
Defaults sit under home with InternxtDrive in the name. Config follows the Electron pattern per OS. Copy the sync folder with sync paused; locked files copy badly while uploads run.
Where Internxt Drive stores this, by platform
C:\Users\[Username]\InternxtDrive
Default sync folder under the user profile; confirm in Preferences. Config with login and logs sits in Roaming beside it. Pause sync before bulk copies.
~/InternxtDrive
Same split with sync under home and Electron config under Application Support. Use Finder Go to Folder for the config side. Preferences shows the live sync path.
~/InternxtDrive
Same split with sync under home and config under XDG config. Respects custom XDG paths. Check Preferences after moving the folder manually.
Frequently asked questions
How do I migrate Internxt Drive to a new computer?
Pause sync and copy the sync folder plus a note of the account. The sync folder holds your files, config holds login and preferences. Both matter for a fast rebuild on new hardware.
Where is my Internxt sync folder right now?
Open Drive Preferences and read the sync location field. The installer suggests a default under home, but the field always shows the live folder after you change it.
