When you install LDPE on Windows you will find your LDPE configuration files under drive\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\LDPartEditor.

LDPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LDPE on older machines as well.

System Requirements:

Minimum System Requirements: - OpenGL 2.1 compatible Graphics Card - Operating System (64-bit): Windows [7 or newer], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6] - CPU: Multicore-Processor e.g. Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon II (>2.0Ghz) - RAM: 4GB - Video-Memory: 1 GB - Free Disk Space: 150 MB

Recommended Requirements: - Operating System (64bit): Windows 7,8,10,11, Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6] - OpenGL 3.3 compatible Graphics Card - CPU: Multicore-Processor with 4 cores (or more) - RAM: >4 GB - Video-Memory: >1 GB - Free Disk Space: 500 MB - For a faster start, the LDraw™ library should be installed on a SSD.

PS: I am still busy with the creation of the manual, so you "have to experiment" with my (complex) software product until you've got the manual.
