Where Is the Subfinder Config File?
Subfinder YAML configs with provider file and override flags.
Last updated
Subfinder keeps two YAML files under the user config dir. Main config plus provider keys share the folder. Override flags and env vars redirect each.
Defaults follow per-OS config roots from source. Windows mirrors the same pair. Keep both files together.
Where Subfinder stores this, by platform
~/.config/subfinder/config.yaml
Main plus provider YAML under user config dir. Env and flag overrides per file. Same pair per OS from source logic.
~/Library/Application Support/subfinder/config.yaml
Same YAML pair under Application Support.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Subfinder?
Copy the subfinder config dir with no scan running. Both YAML files travel together. Restoring means putting the dir back before launch. Flags override per run.
How do I relocate configs?
Env vars plus config and provider flags redirect each file. Defaults resolve from the user config dir per OS. Source confirms the full chain.
