# `KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME`

If you do not want to keep komorebi-related files in your `$Env:USERPROFILE` directory, you can specify a custom directory by setting the `$Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable.

For example, to use the `~/.config/komorebi` directory:

    # Run this command to make sure that the directory has been created
    mkdir -p ~/.config/komorebi

    # Run this command to open up your PowerShell profile configuration in Notepad
    notepad $PROFILE

    # Add this line (with your login user!) to the bottom of your PowerShell profile configuration
    $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME = 'C:\Users\LGUG2Z\.config\komorebi'

    # Save the changes and then reload the PowerShell profile
    . $PROFILE

If you already have configuration files that you wish to keep, move them to the `~/.config/komorebi` directory.

The next time you run `komorebic start`, any files created by or loaded by komorebi will be placed or expected to exist in this folder.
