Where does Mari store its settings


Mari stores a lot of settings in a configuration file. 

Sometimes part of this configuration file can become corrupted leading to all sorts of odd behaviors inside Mari. 


Often times when experiencing unexplainable issues, it can be a good idea to test with a fresh config file.

To do that go to: 


  • Win:  \user\username\.mari\TheFoundry
  • Linux: ~/.config/TheFoundry   (~ refers to your home directory) 
  • Mac: ~/.config/TheFoundry    (~ refers to your home directory)


In there you will find a file called 


    • MariVERSION.conf (linux/mac)
    • MariVERSION.ini (windows)


       e.g. for Mari 4.6 v 1


      • Mari4.6v1.conf (linux/mac)
      • Mari4.6v1.ini (windows)


Rename that file and restart Mari to start with a fresh configuration file. 

Click NO is you are asked to import any previous configs in order to have a truly fresh start.(edited)
