{{update|26.1 changed the structure}}

{{File|directory|'''.minecraft'''|inline=1}} (or simply {{File|directory|'''minecraft'''|inline=1}} on macOS) is the game directory of ''[[Minecraft: Java Edition]]'' and the launcher directory of the ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft Launcher]]''.

The game directory stores data managed by the game client, such as [[Minecraft:Options|game configuration]], [[Minecraft:world]]s and [[Minecraft:resource pack]]s. The launcher directory stores data managed by the launcher, such as its own configuration, the [[Minecraft:client.jar|game client program]], game libraries and assets. Those two directories, while technically distinct, are normally unified (in the default layout) into {{File|directory|'''.minecraft'''|inline=1}}.

== Location ==

{{/path}}

Locating the {{File|directory|.minecraft|inline=1}} directory may be necessary in order to load a [[Minecraft:resource pack]] for use in the game, or to locate any made [[Minecraft:screenshot]]s.

The path in the table above is the default configuration. Launchers can place {{File|directory|.minecraft|inline=1}} at any path.

On a Windows computer, the {{File|directory|%APPDATA%|inline=1}} directory may be accessed by using the ''Run'' command (accessed with the {{key|Windows + R}} keyboard shortcut, or from the Start menu). It can also be accessed from Windows Explorer, by typing {{code|%APPDATA%}} into the address bar and pressing {{key|Enter}}.

On macOS, the game directory may be accessed by opening Finder, pressing {{key|Shift + Command + G}}, typing {{code|~/Library/Application Support/minecraft}} and pressing {{key|Enter}}. It can also be accessed via Spotlight.

On Linux or macOS, the {{code|~}} in the path refers to the home directory. Files starting with {{code|.}} are hidden by default. In most file managers, pressing {{key|Ctrl + H}} toggles viewing hidden files. In macOS specifically, since version 10.12 (Sierra), pressing {{key|Command + Shift + .}} toggles viewing hidden files.

== Changing location ==

Changing the game directory path can be done per installation in the ''Minecraft Launcher''. Changing the launcher directory path can be done by using the {{code|--workDir}} command-line parameter (see [[Minecraft:Tutorial:Custom Minecraft directory]]).

The default location of the game directory is the launcher directory, so changing the launcher directory is sufficient if it is desirable for both of them to be moved to another place.

== Directory structure ==

The complete directory structure is a combination of the game directory and the launcher directory.
