Hey guys. This is the second time I have completely cleared my favorites list in Snap Camera for PC. Since this PC program does not have a profile system like Snapchat does, there is no protection against data loss.

Question: does anyone know where the program stores the masks themselves or the list of masks from the favorite? So that you can backup it sometimes.

  Hey!

  I'm not 100% sure why your data would be lost, but however, if you enjoy a lens and plan on reusing it many times you can save it to favorites. This way it bookmarks the lens. Then when you want to access the lens again just look for it in the categories labeled "favorites"

  As far as I know, you cannot back up the masks, you can only save them as a project and continue later. Regarding the loss of your data, do you save your projects after you have finished or do not you directly upload them to the internet and save them. If you save, I think your problem will be fixed, I'm not sure

  Friends, for clarity, I am attaching a screenshot, since you do not quite understand my problem and you can confuse the programs.

  Here is the Snap Camera, on the left is a list of saved masks for quick access. This list was reset to zero for me 2 times. And I need to find out a way to backup this list.

  Has this not been resolved yet? I had a LOT of filters I've lost, I hope this can be solved.

  There is a 'settings.json' in the following Folder:

  C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Snap\Snap Camera

  Either you backup the whole File, or if you want to save the more specific 'favorites' then you need to open this file with something like Notepad++ and backup the following lines:

  "favorites": [
              "12345678987",
              "12345678987",
              "12345678987"
          ],
