Where Does LibreHardwareMonitor Store Config?
LibreHardwareMonitor portable XML config beside its executable on Windows.
Last updated
LibreHardwareMonitor keeps one XML config sharing the exe name. The app loads and saves that sibling path directly. Source confirms the executable-relative lookup.
No INI variant and no registry store exist for its own settings. That keeps backup to a single file copy.
Where LibreHardwareMonitor stores this, by platform
C:\Program Files\LibreHardwareMonitor\LibreHardwareMonitor.config
XML config sharing the exe name in the program folder. Portable by design with no AppData or registry store. Move the folder to migrate.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up LibreHardwareMonitor?
Copy the config file beside the exe with the app closed. Sensors, layout and logging choices travel in it. Restoring means putting the file back before launch.
AppData or portable?
It stays portable with settings beside the binary. No AppData folder and no registry keys hold config. Move the whole folder to migrate machines.
