Where Does Nacon Store Controller Profiles?
Nacon Revolution software keeps controller profiles, macros, and stick tuning on the PC with slots on the gamepad. Firmware updates ship per device.
Last updated
Nacon splits controller setup between PC software and gamepad memory. Profiles with button maps, macros, stick curves, and trigger stops live in local app data. Active slots mirror into the hardware for console play.
Exact folder names may vary by version, so export profiles inside the software when offered. Firmware and software versions should move together; mismatched pairs drop inputs mysteriously. Keep one tournament profile on the pad for foreign PCs. Paddle remaps save per profile slot. Share codes trade settings online.

Frequently asked questions
How do I update Nacon firmware?
Connect the controller over USB and check the firmware section for prompts per device. Keep the pad steady until each finishes. Update dongles separately from pads when prompted.
How do I back up Nacon profiles?
Copy the app data folder with the software closed, then restore to the same path after reinstalling. Hardware slots carry the active profile regardless. Rebuild macros from screenshots when versions mismatch.
