### Mac OS X Defaults
Per-torrent settings are stored in `~/Library/Application Support/Transmission`
Application settings are stored in `~/Library/Preferences/org.m0k.transmission.plist`
The default download folder is `~/Downloads`

<tr><th>What</th><th>Where</th></tr>

### Linux / GTK Defaults
For the GTK+ client, all settings are kept in `$HOME/.config/transmission`
For the Daemon, all settings are kept in `$HOME/.config/transmission-daemon`
For the CLI, all settings are kept in `$HOME/.config/transmission-cli`
The default download folder is `$HOME/Downloads`
<table>
<tr><th>What</th><th>Where</th></tr>
<tr><td>GTK+/Qt client settings</td><td><tt>$HOME/.config/transmission</tt></td></tr>
<tr><td>Daemon settings</td><td><tt>$HOME/.config/transmission-daemon</tt></td></tr>
<tr><td>CLI settings</td><td><tt>$HOME/.config/transmission-cli</tt></td></tr>

Some Linux distributions' start script for transmission-daemon use different location. This varies by distribution, but two paths sometimes used are `/var/lib/transmission-daemon` and `/var/run/transmission`.
Locations for [[Debian|UnixServer/Debian]] and its derivatives (e.g. Ubuntu).
If you want to swap between the two applications, all you have to do is pass in a different config directory with the -g command-line option. For example, to have the daemon pick up where the gtk+ client left off, run `transmission-daemon -g ~/.config/transmission`.
### Windows Defaults

<tr><td>Daemon settings</td><td><tt>%LOCALAPPDATA%/transmission-daemon</tt></td></tr>

### Overriding the Defaults
The per-user configuration folder's location can be overridden by setting `TRANSMISSION_HOME` and/or other [[environment variables|EnvironmentVariables]].
