Where CloudMount keeps things

Section titled “Where CloudMount keeps things”
What Where
Your drives’ folders %USERPROFILE%\CloudMount\<drive name>
Drive configuration (rclone.conf) %APPDATA%\CloudMount\
Sync state, settings, logs and cache %LOCALAPPDATA%\CloudMount\

The Microsoft Store version keeps the last two inside its package folder, %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Limetric.CloudMount_…\LocalCache\, where other apps don’t see them at the usual paths. Use Export… to get a copy of your configuration, and Settings → About → Logs to find the logs.
