Depends on your OS. If you're using windows you can find
those files in $HOME/.scid/ and directories below that (in
your case $HOME/.scid/config/options.dat).

On windows those directories are located below scid\bin
(actually this is a pretty ugly place which should IMHO be
changed).

I can not comment on the Mac, but here a

    find / -name options.dat

should give you the proper location (will take some time to
scan your HDD).
