On Linux Mint 22.3 Cinnamon where does FileZilla store sites?
Sep 13, 6:35pm

On Linux Mint 22.3 Cinnamon, FileZilla stores its site configurations (including saved FTP/SFTP sites, credentials, and settings) in a hidden directory within your home folder.

Default Location:

The sites and configurations are stored in:

text
~/.config/filezilla/
  • The sitemanager.xml file in this directory contains all the saved site configurations (hostnames, usernames, passwords, etc.).
  • The recentservers.xml file stores recently connected servers.

Accessing the Files:

  1. Open your file manager (e.g., Nemo).

  2. Press Ctrl + H to show hidden folders.

  3. Navigate to:

    text
    /home/your_username/.config/filezilla/

    (Replace your_username with your actual username.)

  4. Look for sitemanager.xml to view or edit saved sites.

Note:

  • If you want to back up your sites, copy the sitemanager.xml file.
  • If you reinstall FileZilla, restoring this file will bring back your saved sites.
