2 years ago Alright, so I had a look at the plist file in the Containers folder to find a comment indicating that the preferences pertaining to per-feed settings etc. are (at least for me) evidently located at: ~/Library/Containers/com.ranchero.NetNewsWire-Evergreen/Data/Library/Application Support/NetNewsWire/Accounts/2_iCloud/Sync.sqlite3
The comment states that the plist is just a subset and shouldn't be itself edited.
I opened this database using this and found nothing of relevance. I know nothing about SQLite so I'm probably just missing something.
I went back to the plist and decided to just make the changes I wanted, to bring things back to how I had assumed they were at default.
This, of course, did not work.

I wish to reset all preferences for NetNewsWire, including per-feed settings.
This article provides details on where data is stored for NNW5.
I discovered that this is not the case for NNW6, with the data apparently stored in ~/Library/Containers. After expunging all data I could find which is related to NNW from ~/Library, including the ~/Containers subdirectory, I found that NNW was still remembering my preferences.
Moreover, it is now no longer syncing down feeds from iCloud.(fixed by deleting and re-adding the account twice)Is there somewhere else, either outside the Library or Containers subdir, perhaps not including 'netnewswire' in its name, where preferences are being stored? Is there something stored in iCloud?
