FAQ: Where does BPFTP Server store the Users, Groups and Settings?
The Users, Groups and Settings for BulletProof FTP Server are stored in simple flat-text-files called INI Files. These files have not changed over previous versions, however the location for these files has changed slightly to reflect Microsoft’s suggestions for security and reliability:
| Version | Default Storage-Location | File Names |
| v2018 v2017 v2016 v2015 v2014 |
%LOCALAPPDATA%\BulletProof Software\BulletProof FTP Server\
As of v2014/v2016, the program will no longer store the files in a “version specific” location on the local computer. In the future, this will streamline the upgrade process for later versions. |
