Where Does TeraCopy Store Settings on Windows?
Where TeraCopy keeps options, file lists and license state on Windows, and how to back the folder up safely.
Last updated
TeraCopy keeps its working state under AppData: options, recent lists and UI choices in one parent folder. The installer never asks where, so the path stays consistent across machines. Shell integration settings travel with it.
Copy that parent with the program closed to migrate. Portable habits do not apply here; beside the exe is not the store. If settings ever reset, this folder is the first place to check for a backup. A reinstall that preserves it keeps your history.
Where TeraCopy stores this, by platform
%APPDATA%\TeraCopy
Options and history in one AppData parent. Close TeraCopy before copying. A reinstall without deleting this folder usually preserves settings.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up TeraCopy settings?
Close TeraCopy and copy its AppData folder elsewhere. Options and history travel with it. License activation can need a re-enter on very different hardware.
TeraCopy reset after an update. Where do I look?
Open TeraCopy Preferences and confirm the config location after major updates. Menu paths move between versions, but the AppData parent stays the reliable anchor.
