Various settings files
When you work in the IDE, the IDE creates files for various types of settings. These files are stored in different directories depending on whether the files contain global or local settings.
Files for global settings
Files for global settings are stored in C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\IAR Embedded Workbench. These are the global settings files:
| A file that holds predefined code templates. Note that if you are using an IDE that is available in both English and Japanese, the language version is set when you start IAR Embedded Workbench for the first time, based on the language settings of the operating system. In this case, the filename is extended with See also Using and adding code templates. |
| A file that holds any custom argument variables that are defined for a global scope. |
| A file that holds IDE and project settings global to your installed IAR Embedded Workbench product(s). |
Files for local settings
Most files for local settings are stored in the directory settings, which is created in your project directory. These are the local settings files:
| A file for debugger desktop settings. |
| A batch file that C-SPY creates every time it is invoked. |
| A file that C-SPY creates every time it is invoked, and which contains the command line options used that are specific to the C-SPY driver you are using. |
| A file that C-SPY creates every time it is invoked, and which contains the command line options used that are specific to |
| A file for debugger initialization information. |
