Question

I can't find where my BarTender document (.btw) is saved. Is there a way to find the file location from within the application?

Applicable To

BarTender 2016 and later.

BarTender Designer.

Answer

The default location where all BarTender documents are saved is: C:\Users\UserName\Documents\BarTender\BarTender Documents

You can also find the location from within BarTender Designer. To find the location of your saved document, follow these steps:

1. Open your label in BarTender Designer by selecting the Open an existing BarTender document... option. You can also select a document from the recently used documents list.

2. Right-click on the tab displaying your document name and select Open Containing Folder. This will open the correct location in File Explorer. You can now move or copy your document at will.
