How to Locate Session Buddy Data on Your Computer

Session Buddy v3 (now deprecated) and Session Buddy v4 (the current version) store data in different places on your computer.

If you are looking for the database file used by the old version of Session Buddy (v3), skip to the section titled “Session Buddy v3 (deprecated)“ below.

Session Buddy v4

Session Buddy v4 stores collections, history, and settings in folders on your computer. To find these folders, follow these steps:

1. Find the current Chrome profile folder

A Session Buddy installation is specific to a Chrome profile.

To find the folder path for the current Chrome profile, see: How to Locate the Current Chrome Profile Folder.

2. Find the Session Buddy database folders

Go to the location of the Chrome profile obtained in Step 1. From this folder, go to the subfolder named IndexedDB.

In the IndexedDB folder, find the subfolder with the following name:

chrome-extension_edacconmaakjimmfgnblocblbcdcpbko_0.indexeddb.leveldb

This is the main Session Buddy database folder.

There MAY also be a subfolder with the following name:

chrome-extension_edacconmaakjimmfgnblocblbcdcpbko_0.indexeddb.blob

This folder also contains Session Buddy data.

When backing up Session Buddy data, make sure to include the main folder as well as this second folder if it is present.

Session Buddy v3 (deprecated)

Session Buddy v3 stored Saved Sessions, Previous Sessions, and settings in a single file on your computer. To locate that file, follow these steps:

1. Find the current Chrome profile folder

A Session Buddy installation is specific to a Chrome profile.

To find the folder path for the current Chrome profile, see: How to Locate the Current Chrome Profile Folder.

2. Find the Session Buddy database file

Go to the location of the Chrome profile obtained in Step 1. From this folder, go to the subfolder named databases. From there, go to the subfolder named chrome-extension_edacconmaakjimmfgnblocblbcdcpbko_0.

This folder contains your Session Buddy v3 database file. The file will have a numeric name like 1 or 2.

If there is more than one such file, the current file is the one with the highest number. This should also be the file with the most recent modification date and largest size.
