- Step 1: Log in to the Steam account you want to copy the config from and go to your Steam profile.
- Step 2: Click on the “Inventory” option from your profile menu.
- Step 3: Click the “Trade Offers” button.

- Step 5: Scroll down and copy, screenshot, or note down the series of numbers in your Trade URL. For example: 4244151.
- Step 6: Open your Steam folder (not the Steam library), which is likely located in Program Files (x86).
- Step 7: Go to the “userdata” folder.
- Step 8: Inside the “userdata” folder, find the folder that matches the numbers in your Trade URL and open it.
