Configuration Settings Storage Locations

To the best of my knowledge the configuration settings for Manuskript are stored in the following locations.

All platforms

Some settings are stored in the project file / folder itself. This is stored in settings.txt in the msk file / project folder. This .txt file is in JSON format.

For example, the preference for showing the "Are you sure you want to delete this item" is project specific:

"dontShowDeleteWarning": false

At the time of writing, editing this file is the only way to bring the warning message back if you check the "don't show this message again" dialog box.

Reset Settings to Default

On GNU/Linux and Windows I have tried deleting these files / registry hive locations and by doing so I was able to reset Manuskript back to the default settings on the next startup of Manuskript.
