Locating .minecraft[edit]

Below is a table showing the default directory for .minecraft.

OSLocation
Windows%APPDATA%.minecraft
macOS~/Library/Application Support/minecraft
Linux~/.minecraft

They're meant to rely on the /bin folder, which no longer exists because the only version of Minecraft you can download is 1.7.4+ which does not create a /bin. This has done nothing but confuse me. So I tried dumping all those folders into the Forged 1.6.4.jar file then deleting META-INF, the launcher does nothing but return me to itself. One does not simply have no.minecraft folder XD Unless they havn't purchased the game. I have two laptops and yes one is a mac and to be honest I hate em, I don't have a solution but there is one for your problem. Once you have the game don't worry bout having to buy it again, Unless you forget your password or username.

Locating the .minecraft folder can be vital for installing a resource pack or to locate any made screenshots.

The Windows location in the table above is just the default case. Launchers can set the .minecraft at any path.

If you're a Windows user and are unfamiliar with how to find your appdata folder, follow these steps:

I go BACK to the.minecraft folder, there is no bin folder. He DOES own the game and i did all the suggestions in the forums, like creating a new world, and playing for a while. I go BACK TO THE FREAKIN.minecraft folder, STILL NO BIN. When looking at.minecraft I found something called bin folder. This thread is archived. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. It is a folder with a bin.

  1. Click Start → Run. If you don't see 'Run', press ⊞ Windows + R.
  2. Type %APPDATA%.minecraft and click 'OK'.

If you're a Mac user, you can open the folder through Spotlight:

  1. Press ⌘ Command + Space or open the Spotlight popup through the magnifying glass icon on the right of the Menu Bar.
  2. Type ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft and hit ↵ Enter.

On Linux or macOS, the ~ in the path refers to the home directory. Folders starting with a . are hidden by default. In most file managers, hitting Ctrl + H toggles their hidden status. In macOS specifically, since version 10.12 (Sierra), the shortcut ⌘ Command + ⇧ Shift + . toggles the hidden status of files.


If you want to change directory of the .minecraft folder, see Tutorials/Custom Minecraft directory.

.minecraft file hierarchy[edit]

Use of a resource pack can be forced by naming its zip file to resources.zip and placing it in the root folder of the world save.[1] This feature is single-player only;[2] however, there is another way for servers to ask clients if they want to use the server resource pack.

For windows OS and linux, the contents of nativelog.txt and nativeUpdaterLog.txt can be found within launcher_log.txt when applicable (i.e. the contents ofnativeUpdaterLog.txt will only be present in latest_log.txt Minimum requirements for steam games. after the launcher is updated / launched for the first time).
