Where Does Samsung Magician Store Profiles and Logs?

Where Samsung Magician keeps profiles and logs on Windows, for Samsung SSD care. Exact folders are covered below.

Last updated

Samsung Magician is SSD dashboard with local cache. Your drives report health, temperature, and wear over NVMe. The app holds profiles, benchmark logs, and firmware packages.

Same drives mean same health on any PC with Magician installed. Exact log names shift with Rapid versus Pro builds. Keep firmware updated from inside the app. If a drive vanishes, check BIOS and cables first. App reinstalls rarely fix what is actually a seating or power issue. Screenshots of settings help when support asks for reproduction steps later.

Profiles and benchmark logs live here. Health itself reports from SSD firmware over NVMe. Firmware packages cache beside logs. Reinstalls never touch drive data.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Samsung Magician profiles to a new PC?

Export profiles from settings, then copy the export plus benchmark logs to the new PC. Drive health lives on the SSD firmware itself. Magician reads SMART over NVMe. Reinstalls restore the same dashboard after sign in while firmware stays on the drive.

Does Magician store my files?

No. Magician reads health from the SSD over NVMe and caches dashboard views locally. Firmware updates flash the drive, not the app folder. Deleting app data resets views but never touches drive contents. Keep firmware ISOs separate for offline updates.
