Where Does Tiled Store Settings?
Tiled mapeditor.org settings file with sessions, shortcuts and custom commands on Windows.
Last updated
Tiled keeps sessions, shortcuts, custom commands and UI state in a settings file under the mapeditor.org vendor folder, while maps are .tmx documents in your project folders. Tilesets resolve relative to each map.
Export formats and automapping rules reference paths, so moved projects break rules first. Back up settings plus projects together.
Where Tiled stores this, by platform
%APPDATA%\mapeditor.org\Tiled.conf
Main settings file with sessions and shortcuts. Exact vendor folder may vary by Qt packaging, so confirm on your install. Map .tmx files and tilesets live in your own project folders. Copy the conf with Tiled closed.

Where are Tiled maps?
Wherever you saved them as .tmx files with tileset images alongside. The settings file holds no map data.
