1.10.4 Configuration Files

The CodeBlocks settings are stored in the default.conf profile in the codeblocks directory of your Application Data. When using personalities (see subsection 1.10.3), the configuration details will be stored in the <personality>.conf file.

The tool cb_share_conf, which can be found in the CodeBlocks installation directory, is used for managing and storing these settings.

If you wish to define standard settings for several users of a computer, the configuration file default.conf has to be stored in the directory \Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\codeblocks. During the first startup, CodeBlocks will copy the presettings from ’Default User’ to the application data of the current users.

To create a portable version of CodeBlocks on a USB stick, proceed as follows. Copy the CodeBlocks installation to a USB stick and store the configuration file default.conf in this directory. The configuration will be used as a global setting. Please take care that the file is writeable, otherwise changes of the configuration cannot be stored.
