Citra's user directory is where the emulator persists the emulated 3DS NAND, save data, extra data, and a host of other files necessary for Citra to run properly. The path of the user directory can be opened from within the Citra application with the `Open Citra folder` menu option. On different systems the paths are:
- on any system, the presence of a directory named `user` on the same directory of the executable will override the default behavior and Citra will use that instead.
- on Windows, the path is `C:/Users/[your-user-name]/AppData/Roaming/Citra/`. Note that the folder `AppData` is hidden by default, so you need to change the configuration to view it.
- in old version of Citra, the user directory used to be the `user` folder in the same directory as the Citra executable.
- on macOS and Linux: in the terminal, type `echo $XDG_DATA_HOME`. This command will print out the user-specific data directory. If nothing gets printed out, that means the directory hasn’t been changed and the path is `~/.local/share/citra-emu/`. Note that the folder `.local` is hidden on most machines, so you need to change the configuration to view it. **Additionally, the `config` folder can be found with the command `echo $XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, otherwise located in `~/.config/citra-emu/`**.
- when Citra is installed via Flatpak, the citra folder will be `~/.var/app/org.citra_emu.citra/data/citra-emu`, and the config folder will be `~/.var/app/org.citra_emu.citra/config`
- on **Windows**, the path is `C:/Users/[your-user-name]/AppData/Roaming/Citra/`. Note that the folder `AppData` is hidden by default, so you need to change the configuration to view it.

- when Citra is installed via **Flatpak**, the citra folder will be `~/.var/app/org.citra_emu.citra/data/citra-emu`, and the config folder will be `~/.var/app/org.citra_emu.citra/config`
There are at least three directories within the user directory: `config`, `nand`, and `sdmc`. See below for details about each directory and what data is stored within.
