Where Does Retrobatch Store Workflows on Mac?
Retrobatch workflows and prefs on macOS, plus where exported droplets go.
Last updated
Retrobatch keeps its prefs in Library Preferences and support files in Application Support. Workflows (.retrobatch files) live wherever you save them, often Documents.
Droplets you export are standalone apps in your chosen folder. Backing up settings means copying support plus workflows. The two rarely sit together.
Where Retrobatch stores this, by platform
~/Library/Application Support/Retrobatch/
Nodes, presets and support files. Workflows stay in Documents or your project folder as .retrobatch. Prefs plist is nearby in ~/Library/Preferences/com.flyingmeat.Retrobatch*.plist (exact name may vary by version).
Frequently asked questions
Where are my Retrobatch workflows?
Wherever you saved them as .retrobatch, usually Documents. The support folder only holds nodes and prefs. Search Finder for .retrobatch when a flow goes missing.
How do I move Retrobatch to a new Mac?
Copy Application Support Retrobatch plus your .retrobatch files and any droplets, then relaunch once. Keep a spare copy until nodes appear. Check the app settings if folder names shifted.
