Where does Postman install to?

On Windows, Postman installs to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Postman.

  • As a shortcut, you can enter %LocalAppData%\Postman.
  • The main Postman executable is stored in a subfolder \app-5.x.x
    • (Replace x with app version)

There are two likely reasons why Postman installs to %AppData%

  • The %AppData% folder is per-user, allowing installation without administrator rights
  • Postman seems to use the Squirrel Installer, which doesn't allow custom install directories
    • (Noted by the presence of \Postman\app-5.x.x\SquirrelSetup.log)

Thanks to LPChip for suggesting %AppData% as a possible install location.
