Preferences File Location

T-HFND-002-002

After the first time you have launched Harmony, your preferences, along with numerous other options and switches in the user interface, are stored in a hidden directory on your computer.

Depending on your operating system, you can find your preference files in the following location:

  • Windows: C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Toon Boom Animation\Toon Boom Harmony Essentials\full-2401-pref

    NOTE On Windows, the AppData folder is hidden. To display it in Explorer, in the top menu, open the View pane and check the Hidden Items checkbox.

  • macOS: /Users/[username]/Library/Preferences/Toon Boom Animation/Toon Boom Harmony Essentials/full-2401-pref

    NOTE On macOS, the Library folder is hidden. To display it in Finder, hold down the Alt key.
TIP You can set a preferred path using the environment variable HARMONY_PREFERENCE_PATH to specify a location where Harmony can read and write your preferences.
