Frequently asked questions
How do I find the exact profile path?
Open whale://version and read Profile Path. The parent folder is the User Data directory.
Can I move the profile by copying User Data?
Yes if Whale is fully closed first. Copy the full User Data folder to the same relative location on the target install, then start Whale and check that history and logins appear.
