Question: Where does Syncthing store the generated TLS certificate?

Hi Everyone, I’m new to Syncthing, and I was wondering where the generated TLS certificate gets stored?

I am running v0.14.52 on Windows 10 out of ~/Syncthing. If I delete this folder, will I lose my certificate (which seems to be the only unique identifier associated with my machine?)

Thanks

It’s stored in %LocalAppData%\Syncthing and that’s your device ID in simple explanation.

@Catfriend1 thanks! Out of curiosity, what’s the equivalent on Linux?
