Where your data lives

Everything NeuroSquad remembers — workspaces, cards, canvas layouts, notes, todo lists, settings, dictation history — is kept in one folder on your computer:

%APPDATA%\NeuroSquad

Paste that into the Windows Explorer address bar to open it. Installing a new version doesn’t touch this folder, and neither does uninstalling the app — unless you turn on Also delete my NeuroSquad data in the uninstaller. See Uninstalling.

On a Mac the folder is:

~/Library/Application Support/NeuroSquad

In Finder, choose Go → Go to Folder… (⇧ ⌘ G) and paste it. Updates don’t touch it, and neither does dragging the app to the Trash.

Recordings

Workspace recordings are kept in its recordings subfolder (or wherever NEUROSQUAD_RECORDINGS_DIR points). They can be large, and they contain every key typed into the recorded terminals — delete the ones you no longer need from Canvas tools → Recordings….

What’s not there

• Your code. NeuroSquad only remembers where your project folder is. It never copies it.
• Your agents’ logins. Agents use their own sign-in; NeuroSquad never sees it.
• Keys you save in NeuroSquad (OpenRouter, Telegram bot tokens) are encrypted by your operating system (Windows, or the Keychain on a Mac) and can’t be read back — not even from your phone.
• Audio. Dictation keeps only the text.

What leaves your computer

Your NeuroSquad sign-in, and usage statistics while you’re signed in — counts only, never code, file names, paths or prompts. Signing out doesn’t delete anything in this folder. See Account & sign-in.

Back up, move or reset

• Back up: copy the folder.
• Move to another computer: copy the folder over. If your projects live in different places there, update each workspace’s folder. Saved keys don’t move — enter them again.
• Start from scratch: with NeuroSquad closed, delete the folder. Your projects aren’t affected.
