Where Does One Commander Store Settings?

One Commander keeps settings and layouts in LocalAppData, with portable builds beside the exe.

Last updated

One Commander stores themes, layouts, favorites, and license state under its LocalAppData folder on installed builds. Exact subpaths shifted across V2 and V3, so copy the whole OneCommander tree rather than single files.

Portable zips keep settings beside the executable instead. That mode suits USB carry and multi PC sync. Decide which mode you run before editing or backing up anything.

Settings, layouts, and favorites for installed builds. Folder names vary by major version. Back up the tree whole with the app closed.

Frequently asked questions

How do I back up One Commander?

Copy the OneCommander LocalAppData tree, or the portable settings folder for USB builds. Note your major version so restores land in the matching layout.

Where is my One Commander license?

Activation state sits with settings in the same tree. Keep the purchase mail too. Reactivation on new hardware is the fallback when files do not transfer.
