# Edge Search Engines
## Search Engines and Address Bar
Use <edge://version> to retrieve `PATH` where profile specific settings are stored in `%localappdata%` for [[Microsoft Edge]]:
- Edge (stable): `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default`
- Edge Dev: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Edge Dev\User Data\Default`
- Edge Beta: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Edge Beta\User Data\Default`
- Edge Canary: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Edge SxS\User Data\Default`
The *searchEngines* and their keywords are stored in the file: Web Data within the aforementioned folder(s); however, this file
is not a text file, rather a version of a `.sqlite` database.
Therefore, to extract and view this data, utilize the [DB Browser for SQLite Utility](https://sqlitebrowser.org/) to extract the tables from the database.
- Can be installed with chocolatey via: `cinst sqlitebrowser.install`.
I exported `keywords.csv` from that, which houses information on my custom *searchEngines* <edge://settings/searchEngines>.
