Hey,

The configuration is currently stored in the DB. The future release of LibreTime should move this configuration to the config file.

If you want to change this anyway, you can change the first entry in the `cc_music_dirs` table:

```sql
UPDATE public.cc_music_dirs
	SET directory='/mnt/libretime/data/'
	WHERE id=1;

```

Be sure that your path has a trailing slash !

Cheers
