Which two locations are app preference files typically stored on a Mac?

App preference files are files that store the rules or parameters that tell your apps how they should work. They usually have the .plist extension and are associated with a specific app’s bundle identifier. App preference files are typically stored in two locations on a Mac: the user library and the system library. The user library is located at -/Library/Preferences and contains the preference files for the current user. The system library is located at /Library/Preferences and contains the preference files for all users. These locations are different from the root library, which is located at /System/Library/Preferences and contains the preference files for the operating system and its components. You can access these locations by using the Finder, the Terminal, or the defaults command line utility. You can also edit, delete, or reset the preference files using various methods, but you should be careful not to damage or corrupt them, as they may affect the functionality of your apps. References:
