Where Does ReiKey Store Rules on Mac?
Where ReiKey keeps keylogger rules and event logs on Mac for review, backup and full moves.
Last updated
ReiKey watches keyboard event taps with rules and logs under the Objective-See vendor folder: allow and block entries plus flagged process history. A helper outside the bundle enforces them.
Copy rules with monitoring paused; the helper reinstalls per Mac and permissions never travel. Reach Library through Go to Folder. Trial and alert state sits beside rules, so restores can confuse licensing on new hardware.
Where ReiKey stores this, by platform
~/Library/Application Support/Objective-See/ReiKey
Rules and event history under the vendor folder in Library. Helper reinstalls per Mac. Pause monitoring before copying; re-grant permissions after.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move ReiKey to a new Mac?
Copy the Objective-See data folder with monitoring paused, then reinstall the helper on the new Mac. Rules travel in files; enforcement needs the fresh install. Re-grant permissions after restoring.
Where are ReiKey detections on disk?
Open ReiKey console and read the flagged processes; the files mirror it. Rules live under the vendor folder in Library. The console always shows the live set.
