The main ''Cumulus.ini'' [[:Category:Configuration Files| configuration file]] is located in the directory in which you installed Cumulus.exe. It is a text file containing initialization parameters used by the Cumulus 1.x.x, or Cumulus MX, application; and is read '''only''' when Cumulus starts up.  Cumulus '''re-writes''' the contents of the application configuration screens to the file when it ''shuts down''. For Cumulus MX, the file-name must start with a capital letter.
