Configuration Files & Storage Paths - KeyHelp Knowledge Base

Please note that manual changes made by you in the configuration files created by KeyHelp can be overwritten. You should make changes primarily in the configuration GUI.

If manual adjustments are still necessary, you can protect the file from changes by using the chattr command. KeyHelp cannot make any changes.
