How do I remove app data?

Where RightPlace keeps its data on macOS and Windows, and how to remove it for a clean reset.

RightPlace keeps two separate things on your computer: the app itself, and the app data it creates while you use it (local databases, caches, settings, and your signed in state).

Removing the app does not remove the app data, and removing the app data does not remove the app. This page covers both, so you can do either one on its own or wipe everything for a completely clean start.

Your work is safe. RightPlace is zero knowledge, so anything you have synced stays sealed in the cloud and downloads again when you sign back in. Read more about how this works.

macOS

Remove the app

Quit RightPlace first, then drag RightPlace Core from your Applications folder to the Trash, or run:

rm -rf "/Applications/RightPlace Core.app"

Remove the app data

All of RightPlace’s local data lives in a single folder:

~/Library/Application Support/app.rightplace.core

To delete it, quit RightPlace and run:

rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/app.rightplace.core

Optional: clear the keychain entry

For a completely clean slate, you can also remove the secure entry RightPlace keeps in your login keychain. Open Keychain Access, search for app.rightplace.core, and delete the matching items, or run:

security delete-generic-password -s "app.rightplace.core"

Windows 11

Remove the app

Open Settings, go to Apps, then Installed apps, find RightPlace Core, and choose Uninstall.

Remove the app data

RightPlace’s local data lives in your user profile. Press Win + R, paste the path below, and press Enter to open the folder, then delete it:

%APPDATA%\app.rightplace.core

If a folder also exists at the path below, remove that one too:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\app.rightplace.core

Optional: clear the credential entry

For a completely clean slate, open Credential Manager, select Windows Credentials, and remove any generic credential that mentions RightPlace.

Start fresh

Once the app data is gone, RightPlace opens like a first install the next time you launch it. Sign in with your account and recovery code, and your synced projects come back. Learn about your recovery code.
