 ### How does IPFS Desktop select the IPFS repo location?
 
-IPFS Desktop uses [ipfsd-ctl](https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfsd-ctl), which, by default, checks the `IPFS_PATH` environment variable. If that isn't set, it falls back to `$HOME/.ipfs`. As soon as the first run has succeeded, repository location info is saved in the configuration file, which becomes the source of truth.

 This means you are attempting to run an older version of ipfs-desktop or Kubo than you have previously ran on your machine.
