Where are program settings stored?

Menu command Tools | Locate settings file locates Password Agent settings folder under user’s roaming profile folder (typically C:\Users\<YourUserNameHere>\AppData\Roaming\Moon Software\Password Agent).

You can also open this folder in Windows Explorer by pasting path %APPDATA%\Moon Software\Password Agent (include %-marks) to Windows Explorer location bar.

License key is PwAgent.key and program settings are in PwAgent.ini file. You can copy these files to the same location in another computer, but be sure Password Agent is not running in destination computer when you do so, otherwise freshly copied settings file will be overwritten when Password Agent is closed.

If settings file PwAgent.ini is missing from that folder then default settings are used on startup and new settings file will be created.

If there is settings file or license key file in the application directory then that file is used instead of one from user’s profile. That makes Password Agent more portable and you can also force users to certain settings by serving settings file along with exectable from network share. If the share is read-only then users also cannot change settings (they can change but when Password Agent is closed then changed settings are not saved as settings file is read-only).
