Where Does Special K Store Configs?
Special K Documents profiles plus per-game INI injection layout.
Last updated
Special K keeps a central profile store in Documents My Mods plus per-game INI files next to each hooked executable. Global injection settings and game profiles stay separate on purpose.
HDR retrofits are the headline feature. Tune per game; global defaults rarely suit everything.
Where Special K stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Mods\SpecialK\profiles
Per-game profiles inside; global config sits in the SpecialK parent. Injected games also carry a local dxgi.ini or SpecialK config beside their exe. Copy profiles to migrate tuning; reinstall the service after major Windows updates.
