Where are Screenlets configuration files?

  • 772

I have just installed Screenlets and the extra widget package thru software center.

Now I have gotten a little problem with a widget and therefore I want to reset the screenlet widget.

However I can not find the configuration files. I have looked in /home/~/.screenlets, but the folder is empty.

Does anyone knows where the config/properties for the widgets are stored?

  1. Best Answer

    The configuration for individual screenlets is stored in ~/.config/screenlets/ per the XDG Base Directory Specification. The actual screenlets are (non-compliantly) stored in ~/screenlets/.

    Refer to the official FAQ for more details.

  2. You are looking for: $HOME/.screenlets.

    Did you look (under the command line) for ~/.screenlets

    OR

    did you use Nautilus, enable "Show Hidden Files", and look for folder: .screenlets ?
