=== All config file switches in detail ===
=== Using the configuration file to configure ScummVM ===
When you change a setting in the ScummVM Launcher (see [[#Using_the_Launcher_to_configure_ScummVM |Using the Launcher to configure ScummVM]]), all it does is add a line to the ''configuration file''. This is a plain text file which stores all the settings for ScummVM. It is possible to edit this file directly, and some settings can only be changed this way.
 
The name of the config file and the location in which it is stored depend on the system you are running ScummVM on:
 
{|class="wikitable"
|-
! Operating System
! Location of config file
|-
| Windows Vista
| \Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ScummVM\scummvm.ini
|-
| Windows 2000/XP
| \Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\ScummVM\scummvm.ini
|-
| Windows NT4
| <windir>\Profiles\username\Application Data\ScummVM\scummvm.ini
|-
| Windows 95/98/ME
| <windir>\scummvm.ini
|-
| Unix
| $HOME/.scummvmrc
|-
| Mac OS X
| $HOME/Library/Preferences/ScummVM Preferences
|-
| Others
| scummvm.ini in the current directory
|}
Note: all Windows versions will use <windir>\scummvm.ini if it already exists.
