Some tips about file location

After downloading minecraft, you need to determine exactly where your version file has been downloaded to make it easier for you to make changes.

Version Isolation

To set up, please click here

If you have version isolation enabled, your individual version folders will be

HMCLPE/.minecraft/versions/[your-version-name]

If not, all your game files will be stored to

HMCLPE/.minecraft

Without version isolation enabled, storing and managing many minecraft versions would be a huge hassle. If you need to change versions, you will need to delete or backup all the old files inside the .minecraft folder. If you just overwrite the new files, there is a good chance that the game will not start(Reason: MOD conflict or MOD is not compatible with Minecraft/Forge/Fabric version).
