On Android, the files are located inside {{w|APK}} files. Those are based on ZIP archives, and can be opened with an archive tool that supports this format. The assets present in the {{File|directory|Content|inline=1}} directory on Windows are located in the <code>install_pack.apk</code> split, inside the {{File|directory|assets|inline=1}} directory.

Template:Italic title The installation files for Template:BE contain the game program as well as resources required to run the game, such as Minecraft:resource packs, Minecraft:behavior packs, Minecraft:skin packs, and Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals configurations. On the Windows version of Template:BE, those are located in Template:File or Template:File.

Location

Windows

On Windows, the files are located under the Template:File (or Template:File when installed through Microsoft Store.) For Preview, the files are located under Template:File (or Template:File when installed through Microsoft Store.)

This directory contains a few unknown files and a Template:File directory containing all data. The Template:File directory may also be located on other Template:W depending on the game's installation folder, which is configured in Microsoft Store or the Xbox app.<ref>https://www.elevenforum.com/t/change-game-installation-options-in-microsoft-store-and-xbox-app-in-windows-11.19791/</ref>

The main Template:File directory can also be accessed from the old UWP storage location in Template:Cd. The directory's name is different based on each versions:

Android

On Android, the files are located inside Template:W files. Those are based on ZIP archives, and can be opened with an archive tool that supports this format. The assets present in the Template:File directory on Windows are located in the Template:File split, inside the Template:File directory.

When the game is installed, the APK files are installed into Template:File. While this directory is not readable without root, it is possible to access the APK files using Template:W (ADB) or third-party tools like Package Manager.
