I am trying to find my User Defined swatches so I can share with another Graphic Artist. However I go through the entire swatch library and can't find it. Can anyone tell me where else to look?

You are in the wrong Library folder that should be Users > Your Name > Library > Application Support > Adobe >

Hello @Tyrone28974853vzb2,

 

Thanks for reaching out. For Windows computers, the User-defined swatches are stored in the following directory:

 

C:\Users\'YOUR USERNAME'\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 27 Settings\en_US\x64\Swatches

 

Feel free to reach out if you have more questions or need assistance. We'd be happy to help.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav

I'm needing help with this same problem. But when I navigate to the Application Support folder there is no folder for Illustrator. Any ideas why it's not there or how to find it?
