This article is about the folder in Java Edition. For the folder in Bedrock Edition, see com.mojang.
Plugins Folder Minecraft
This feature is exclusive to Java Edition.
.minecraft (or simply minecraft in macOS) is the folder Minecraft creates to run from. This folder includes the .jar files, sound, music, resource packs, personal options, worlds, etc.
Locating .minecraft[edit]
Navigate to the.minecraft directory, and go to the 'Versions' Folder. Find the version of minecraft you are trying to make a texture pack for, and open it. Create a Folder on your desktop, and copy the.jar and.json files into it. Make sure you copy. If you do not have a program like Win-Rar or 7-Zip, install one now.
Below is a table showing the default directory for .minecraft.

Windows | %APPDATA%.minecraft |
macOS | ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft |
Linux | ~/.minecraft |
Locating the .minecraft folder can be vital for installing a resource pack, or to locate any made screenshots.
The Windows location in the table above is just the default case. Launchers can set the .minecraft at any path.
If you're a Windows user and are unfamiliar with how to find your appdata folder, follow these steps:
- Click Start → Run. If you don't see 'Run', press ⊞ Windows + R.
- Type
%APPDATA%.minecraft
and click 'OK'.
If you're a Mac user, you can open the folder through Spotlight:
- Press ⌘ Command + Space or open the Spotlight popup through the magnifying glass icon on the right of the Menu Bar.
- Type
~/Library/Application Support/minecraft
and hit ↵ Enter.
On Linux or macOS, the ~
in the path refers to the home directory. Folders starting with a .
are hidden by default. In most file managers, hitting Ctrl + H toggles their hidden status. In macOS specifically, since version 10.12 (Sierra), the shortcut ⌘ Command + ⇧ Shift + . toggles the hidden status of files.
If you want to change directory of the .minecraft folder, see Tutorials/Custom Minecraft directory.
.minecraft file hierarchy[edit]
Use of a resource pack can be forced by naming its zip file to resources.zip
and placing it in the root folder of the world save.[1] This feature is single-player only;[2] however, there is another way for servers to ask clients if they want to use the server resource pack.
For windows OS and linux, the contents of nativelog.txt
and nativeUpdaterLog.txt
can be found within launcher_log.txt
when applicable (i.e. the contents ofnativeUpdaterLog.txt
will only be present in latest_log.txt
after the launcher is updated / launched for the first time).
