Where Does Warface Store Profiles and Settings?

Warface keeps profiles and graphics settings in a Saved Games folder, with per-profile subfolders inside.

Last updated

Warface stores its local data in the Saved Games library rather than Documents or AppData. Inside the Warface folder sit your profile folders plus a ModelsCache directory.

Each profile folder holds settings including the graphics XML that support edits when the game refuses to start. Knowing the path turns most launch troubleshooting into a two minute file deletion instead of a full reinstall.

Where Warface stores this, by platform

Windows
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\My Games\Warface

Profiles live here, each in its own subfolder with files like GFXSettings.Warface.xml. Paste into the Run dialog to jump straight there.

Linux
~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/291480/pfx/

Proton prefix for the Windows build (AppID 291480). The Saved Games path above appears inside the prefix's virtual user folders.

Frequently asked questions

How do I transfer my Warface settings to a new PC?

Open the Profiles folder and copy your named profile. Paste it into the same location on the new machine before first launch for the smoothest result.

Warface crashes on launch. Which folder do I delete?

Delete the ModelsCache folder inside the Warface directory. Support prescribes exactly this for crash loops, and the game rebuilds the cache on next launch.
