## The User Directory
Citra's user directory is where the emulator persists the emulated 3DS NAND, save data, extra data, and a host of other files necessary for Citra to run properly. On Windows it is the `C:/Users/<your-user-name>/AppData/Roaming/Citra/` (in old version it used to be the `user` folder in the same directory as the Citra executable). on macOS and Linux it is at `~/.local/share/citra-emu/`.
Citra's user directory is where the emulator persists the emulated 3DS NAND, save data, extra data, and a host of other files necessary for Citra to run properly. The path of the user directory varies on different systems:
- on Windows, the path is `C:/Users/<your-user-name>/AppData/Roaming/Citra/`. Note that the folder `AppData` is hidden by default, so you need to change the configuration to view it.
- in old version of Citra, the user directory used to be the `user` folder in the same directory as the Citra executable.
- on macOS and Linux, the path is `~/.local/share/citra-emu/`. Note that the folder `.local` is hidden on most machine, so you need to change the configuration to view it.
There are at least three directories within the user directory: `config`, `nand`, and `sdmc`. For users that have dumped the shared fonts from a 3DS console, there will also be a `sysdata` directory. See below for details about each directory and what data is stored within.
