## How to get a User Token

### Through the desktop app / enabling web developer tools
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### By editing the settings file
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. If Discord is running, exit the application by right-clicking the icon in your taskbar tray and clicking `Quit Discord`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Open Discord's settings file in your preferred text editor. See the following table for help finding it:
|
|
|
|
|
|
| OS | Stable | Canary | Public Test Build (PTB) |
|
|
|
| ------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
| Windows | `%APPDATA%\discord\settings.json` | `%APPDATA%\discordcanary\settings.json` | `%APPDATA%\discordptb\settings.json` |
|
|
|
| macOS | `~/Library/Application Support/discord/settings.json` | `~/Library/Application Support/discordcanary/settings.json` | `~/Library/Application Support/discordptb/settings.json` |
|
|
|
| Linux | `~/.config/discord/settings.json` | `~/.config/discordcanary/settings.json` | `~/.config/discordptb/settings.json` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you use BetterDiscord, use the following table instead:
|
|
|
|
|
|
| OS | Stable | Canary | Public Test Build (PTB) |
|
|
|
| ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
| Windows | `%APPDATA%\BetterDiscord\data\stable\settings.json` | `%APPDATA%\BetterDiscord\data\canary\settings.json` | `%APPDATA%\BetterDiscord\data\ptb\settings.json` |
|
|
|
| macOS | `~/Library/Application Support/BetterDiscord/data/stable/settings.json` | `~/Library/Application Support/BetterDiscord/data/canary/settings.json` | `~/Library/Application Support/BetterDiscord/data/ptb/settings.json` |
|
|
|
| Linux | `~/.config/BetterDiscord/data/stable/settings.json` | `~/.config/BetterDiscord/data/canary/settings.json` | `~/.config/BetterDiscord/data/ptb/settings.json` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Insert a blank line after the first curly bracket (`{`), add the text `"DANGEROUS_ENABLE_DEVTOOLS_ONLY_ENABLE_IF_YOU_KNOW_WHAT_YOURE_DOING": true,` to it, and save the file. Your file should resemble the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
"DANGEROUS_ENABLE_DEVTOOLS_ONLY_ENABLE_IF_YOU_KNOW_WHAT_YOURE_DOING": true,
|
|
|
"BACKGROUND_COLOR": "#202225",
