File locations¶
This page documents the filesystem paths Zero Install reads from and writes to during normal operation.
Hint
On Windows you can use Portable mode to store all files in a single directory (e.g., for use on a USB thumb drive).
Note
On Linux Zero Install follows the XDG Base Directory Specification.
