Where Does Rambox Store Data?
Rambox is an Electron app and keeps workspaces, profiles, app sessions, and settings in the standard per user app data folder. This folder is the target for backup and clean reinstall.
Last updated
Rambox stores added apps, workspaces, profiles, extensions, and local session data on disk. Service logins persist in partitions that hold cookies and storage for each app instance. Settings files record layout and preferences.
The folder location follows Electron conventions on each desktop system. Quit Rambox fully before backup or restore to avoid locked files. A master password, when set, protects access in the app but does not replace an encrypted backup of the folder.

Frequently asked questions
Where are Rambox profiles and workspaces kept?
Under the main Rambox data folder in profile and workspace related settings and partitions. Use in app backup or copy the full folder while the app is closed for a consistent copy.
How do I do a clean reinstall without losing setup?
Back up the data folder first, uninstall the app, then delete the folder only if a full reset is intended. Reinstall and restore the backup before first launch, then check logins because some services use device bound tokens.
