The choice between `.config.json` and the other file now covers more cases, and Claude Code can report the file it is not using.\n\nDeleting a folder now retries three times. If the folder is still there after that, the error says a running Claude Code session may be the cause.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes which config file is used during an upgrade or move, and makes deleting folders more reliable.\n\n- Area: Settings\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
