# Portable Mode

Mark Text stores all user configuration inside the [application data directory](APPLICATION_DATA_DIRECTORY.md) that can be changed with `--user-data-dir` command-line flag.

## Linux and Window

On Linux and Window you can also create a directory called `marktext-user-data` to save all user data inside the directory. Like:

```
marktext-portable/
 ├── marktext/Mark Text.exe
 ├── marktext-user-data/
 └── ...
```
