# Search order for the configuration file

If no configuration file is specified on the command line and config file loading is not disabled, Bochs searches for a default configuration file. This is the search order:

1. `.bochsrc` in the current directory

2. `bochsrc` in the current directory

3. `bochsrc.txt` in the current directory

4. (win32 only) `bochsrc.bxrc` in the current directory

5. (Unix only) `.bochsrc` in the user's home directory

6. (Unix only) `bochsrc` in the `/etc` directory
