LocalFileStorage Location

When using the LocalFileStorage to save preferences, where on the disk is it saving the file to on both Mac and Windows

Hi, you don’t really have acess to that, per se.
Here’s a bit more info on that:

I was really looking for the actual file it saved to the hard drive or the location on the hard drive where the settings are stored just so I can see it

Mac:
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/UXP/PluginsStorage/PHSP/<PSmajorVersionNumber>/External/<PluginId>/LocalStorage

Windows:
\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\UXP\PluginsStorage\PHSP\<PSmajorVersionNumber>\External\<PluginId>\LocalStorage

If you are developing and loading the plugin with the UXP Developer Tool it’s the folder Developer instead of External.
