## Identifying a profile
...
Now that you have created a new profile, you will need to identify it in the server files. Profiles are stored with a unique random ID and as such it may seem hard to know where and which file to look for.
### Alternative "quick" way
To find a specific profile:
(by not closing the server and getting the profileID)
1. Go into `%game%\Server\user\profiles\`.
2. One by one, open a profile file in a code editor and look for the `email` and/or `Nickname` properties.

After a bit of research you should have now identified which profile you want to use and can proceed with the next step.
> **Alternative "quick" way**\
> You can quickly identify a profile ID by checking for which profile are the request sent to the server. The ID will be listed at the start of each server request in the server window. Once you've identified the profile ID, you can directly go look for the profile file with the same name in `%game%\Server\user\profiles\`.

## Making a backup
...
> **Note**\
> This section talk about a good practices that could save you some time in case of a error or a corrupted profile. If you want to just move on with the next steps you can directly go to the [next page](./#tutorials/tut_0/tut0_2.md).
## Final review
Making a profile backup will allow you to not loose your work if you make a mistake while editing your profile. It's also very usefull in case of profile corruption due to a server error and/or improper profile save.
...
To backup a profile, it's recommanded to create a new folder outside of any of the folders used by the server to write data (like `%game%\Server\user\profiles\`) and to create a `backups` folder at the root of the server directory.
This way, if you ever wanted to roll back and/or restore a corrupted profile, you would just need to go get a previous version of it and copy/paste it over the faulty file.
