Where are these trust settings saved?

[GeriZ]

Description

I've activated the "trust all content" settings in Artifacts and Authorities under Preferences - Install/Update - Trust. Then I've copied the whole directory C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\DBeaverData to a backup location. Some times later I've deleted C:\Program Files\DBeaver and C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\DBeaverData, reinstalled DBeaver and copied C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\DBeaverData back from the backup location to have all my settings restored.

Interestingly both trust settings are not activated now. Where are these settings saved?

DBeaver Version

Community Edition 24.1.1

Operating System

Windows 10

Database and driver

Steps to reproduce

Any idea from one of the DBeaver developers?

It seems that these settings are saved in org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine.prefs under C:\Program Files\DBeaver\p2\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine\profileRegistry\DefaultProfile.profile.data.settings.

Should user preferences not be saved anywhere in C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\DBeaverData?

Hi @GeriZ,
We are using:

1 Configuration scope. Preferences stored in this scope are shared by all workspaces that are launched using a particular configuration of Eclipse plug-ins. On a single-user installation, this serves to capture preferences that are common to all workspaces launched by that user. On a multi-user installation, these preferences are shared by all users of the configuration.
2 Instance scope. Preferences in this scope are specific to a single Eclipse workspace. The old API method getPluginPreferences on Plugin stores its preferences at this scope.

The location of preferences depends on the installation mode (for All users, Only for me) or unzip mode.
By default, you can find your preferences at
C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\DBeaverData\workspace6.metadata.plugins
If you are using unzip to some location the preferences path will be relative to your product location.
