Your data is also automatically synced to our [cloud servers]({% link _articles/security/where-is-data-stored-cloud.md %}). In the event that you need to recover your data due to a device crash, simply reinstall the Bitwarden application and log in and your data will be re-synced.

All sensitive data stored on your computer/device is encrypted. The data can be found in the following locations:

Desktop

  • Windows
    • Standard Installations & Store: %AppData%\Bitwarden
    • Portable: .\bitwarden-appdata
  • macOS
    • Standard Installations: ~/Library/Application Support/Bitwarden
    • Mac App Store: ~/Library/Containers/com.bitwarden.desktop/Data/Library/Application Support/Bitwarden
  • Linux
    • Standard Installations: ~/.config/Bitwarden
    • Snap: ~/snap/bitwarden/current/.config/Bitwarden

{% callout success %} You can override the storage location for your Bitwarden desktop application data by setting the BITWARDEN_APPDATA_DIR environment variable to an absolute path. {% endcallout %}

{% callout info %} To enhance security, Firefox uses Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) within extension storage folder names. Use the about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox page (navigate from Firefox's address bar) to locate your Bitwarden extension UUID. Replace [UUID] with that UUID. Note also that Firefox allows users to customize where to store their profiles (and thus local Bitwarden extension data). The location specified above is the default. {% endcallout %}
