Where are the EditorUserBuildSettings stored? They’re not stored in the “ProjectSettings” directory. The code doesn’t give a clue either.
I would like to backup/restore these settings.
The build settings are stored in the Library/EditorUserBuildSettings.asset asset. Couldn’t be any simpler.

I got excited too soon, Library/EditorUserBuildSettings.asset does not store all settings.
It does store “Copy PDB files” for example, but does not store “Server Build” among various others. So where are the remaining settings stored (Server Build, Development Build, Deep Profiling, etc)?

I have the same question and would like to add, that I’m trying to implement a build script that changes all sorts of required settings: PlayerSettings, EditorUserBuildSettings, EditorBuildSettings, BuildPipeline/BuildPlayerOptions/BuildOptions, EditorSettings. But after building, I want to restore all settings to their previous value to avoid setting version control dirty and generally messing with a user’s current editor session.
Not so easy I think, because there are so many settings that are changed in different places, it’s easy to forget. Also, their original values need to be written to disk or saved as a ScriptableObject that survives domain reload since scripts recompile during the build. All of that would be much simpler if we could simply backup the original files and restore them afterward.

Are you sure about that? It seems it stores a ton of settings in there. It’s serialized as Unity Asset so I think it needs to be deserialized as a EditorUserBuildSettings object to be able to read it properly. Opening it using Text editor reveals it holds a lot of settings in there.
