    I just uninstalled and reinstalled Jellyfin. I had to do this twice, because the first time I didn't get a clean uninstall, and the program wouldn't open properly. 

    So, the second time I deleted everything in my (Windows 10) Program Files/Jellyfin and Users/username/AppData/Local/Jellyfin* folders (the latter pattern matching three folders, IIRC). I had to reboot to delete the last of the files, in fact.

    To my surprise, upon reinstall EVERYTHING was restored! This is contrary to an earlier experience when I first started out, where I lost my libraries, collections, and so forth.

    My question is simply: WHERE is all this data stored? Did I miss some important folder in my C-drive somewhere? Is it ported to some cloud, and I forgot I gave it permission to do so? (And if so, where is that checkbox?)

    TIA.
