🔧 How to Enable Developer Tools in Discord (Desktop)

✅ Step 1: Navigate to Discord Settings Folder

Open the following path in your File Explorer:

C:\Users\{YourUsername}\AppData\Roaming\discord

🔍 Replace {YourUsername} with your actual Windows username.
💡 You may need to enable "Show hidden files" to see the AppData folder.

✅ Step 2: Modify Settings JSON

Look for a file like settings.json. Open it with a text editor (e.g., Notepad or VS Code), and add or edit the following:

{
  "BACKGROUND_COLOR": "#2c2d32",
  "audioSubsystem": "experimental",
  "useLegacyAudioDevice": false,
  "chromiumSwitches": {},
  "IS_MAXIMIZED": true,
  "IS_MINIMIZED": false,
  "WINDOW_BOUNDS": {
    "x": 1280,
    "y": 0,
    "width": 1280,
    "height": 1400
  },
  "DANGEROUS_ENABLE_DEVTOOLS_ONLY_ENABLE_IF_YOU_KNOW_WHAT_YOURE_DOING": true
}

⚠️ Warning: Enabling developer tools may expose internal components. Use only if you know what you're doing.

✅ Step 3: Restart Discord

Completely close and re-open the Discord app to apply the changes.

---

✅ Step 4: Open Developer Tools

Press:

Ctrl + Shift + I

🛠 This will open the DevTools panel, just like in Chrome or other Chromium-based apps.
