The ownCloud Client reads a configuration file. You can locate this configuration file as follows:

On Linux distributions:

$HOME/.local/share/data/ownCloud/owncloud.cfg

On Microsoft Windows systems:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\ownCloud\owncloud.cfg

On MAC OS X systems:

$HOME/Library/Application Support/ownCloud/owncloud.cfg

The configuration file contains settings using the Microsoft Windows .ini file format. You can overwrite changes using the ownCloud configuration dialog.

Note

Use caution when making changes to the ownCloud Client configuration file. Incorrect settings can produce unintended results.

Some interesting values that can be set on the configuration file are:
