    67You can get a similar raw view by viewing these files, but the preferences' panel [[JOSMImage(preferences/advanced,link=,24,middle)]] [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Advanced advanced preferences] is intended to provide an easier alternative.

    28 The default location of the directories depends on your operating system.
     25The default location of the directories depends on your operating system and is listed in the [wikitr:/Help/Action/About#InstallationDetails Installation details] tab of the [[JOSMImage(logo_48x48x32,link=,middle,24)]][wikitr:/Help/Action/About About dialog] in the [wikitr:/Help/Menu/Help Help menu]

     63If JOSM is installed via flatpak, the locations are
     64 Preferences:: `$HOME/.var/app/org.openstreetmap.josm/config`
     65 User data:: `$HOME/.var/app/org.openstreetmap.josm/data`
     66 Cache:: `$HOME/.var/app/org.openstreetmap.josm/cache`
     67

    6669JOSM will continue to use the old locations if the directory `$HOME/.josm` exists. If you have a fresh installation but prefer the old scheme, you can create the `$HOME/.josm` directory by hand.

    6871Note on hidden files: File names beginning with a dot are hidden on Linux. To show the contents of the hidden folder, use the file manager and enter `~/.josm` in the address line (if no address line is visible just try to enter a letter and hopefully a popup to enter the address will open). Alternatively, it is possible to "show hidden" files and folders in the file manager, using the keyboard shortcut `Ctrl+H`.
