Kythia manages basic configurations for you automatically. If you need to make advanced changes, the configuration files for CockroachDB are located at:

C:\kythia\bin\cockroachdb\{version}\conf\

Data files (where your actual database records live) are stored safely at:

C:\kythia\data\cockroachdb\

Log files are extremely useful for debugging failed queries or startup issues. They are located at:

C:\kythia\bin\cockroachdb\{version}\logs\

You can also view the logs in real-time directly via the Logs button in the Kythia UI.
