Where Does KRDC Store Bookmarks and History?
KRDC keeps bookmarks and recent connections in the KDE config home on Linux. Passwords stay in KWallet, so copy both when migrating.
Last updated
KRDC is the KDE remote desktop client for RDP and VNC. It tracks recent connections automatically and lets you bookmark favorites with per host details like connection counts and dates. The main window separates bookmarks from history.
Like most KDE apps, it stores this in the XDG config home. Credentials are the exception. Those go to KWallet, so a config file copy alone moves the host list without the logins. Bookmark favorites from the client so they persist across sessions and history pruning.
Where KRDC stores this, by platform
/home/<username>/.config/krdcrc
Main config with bookmarks and history. Exact keys vary by release, so check inside the app if a value looks different.
/home/<username>/.local/share/kwalletd/kdewallet.kwl
Wallet holding saved server passwords. Migrate it alongside krdcrc to keep logins working.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move KRDC connections to a new machine?
Copy the config file below plus your KWallet data with KRDC closed. Bookmarks restore on launch. Re enter server passwords if KWallet does not travel with the copy.
How do I keep a connection permanently?
Star the connection in the client. Bookmarked entries persist in the config file, while plain history ages out.
