<HeadTitle title="OpenBBUserData Folder | OpenBB CLI Docs" />
The OpenBBUserData folder is where exports, routines, and other user-related content is saved and stored.
:::info
If a new file is placed in the folder (like a Routine) the CLI will need to be reset before auto complete will recognize it.
:::
## Default Location
Its default location is the home of the system user account, similar to the following paths:
- macOS: `Macintosh HD/Users/<YOUR_USERNAME>/OpenBBUserData`
- Windows: `C:/Users/<YOUR_USERNAME>/OpenBBUserData`
This folder contains all things user-created. For example:
- Exported files
- Styles and themes
- Routines
- Logs
:::note
**Note:** With a WSL-enabled Windows installation, this folder will be under the Linux partition
:::
## Update Folder Location
The location of this folder can be set by the user by changing the user configuration file: `/home/your-user/.openbb_platform/user_settings.json`.
```json
{
...
"preferences": {
"data_directory": "/path/to/NewOpenBBUserData",
"export_directory": "/path/to/NewOpenBBUserData"
},
...
}
```
