Location Of Itunes Backup !!hot!! Review

C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\ (Note: Same as above in recent years, but historically XP used different paths.)

~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ Default path: location of itunes backup

iTunes (and now Finder in macOS Catalina and later) creates backups of iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch) that are stored in a hidden, encrypted folder. The exact path varies by OS, but all backups are stored in a subfolder named with the device's Unique Device ID (UDID) . These backups are not human-readable ; they are stored in a proprietary format. 1. Windows Locations Windows 10, 11, 8, 7, Vista, XP (32-bit & 64-bit nuances) Default path (modern Windows): 1. Windows Locations Windows 10
