I want to madify the <cc_config.xml> and <app_info.xml> filesin Linux Mint

(moderation:
I have my older Intel 990X up and running again with Linux Mint 20 and my original RTX 2060 GPU back where it belongs. Now that it is up and running I need to make a few changes to my BOINC program running on it.
It has been so long I'm having trouble remembering (ol' man jokes aside) where the BOINC files are so I can modify the <cc_config.xml> and <app-info.xml> files. I know that the BOINC file itself is in the "home" directory, but it has nothing other than two files in it... unless they are 'hidden', in which case I don't have a clue what to do next. I also made some changes to the BOINC local directory in BOINC Manager so it didn't mess with the web based files used in my 3950X running Windows 10.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For cc_config.xml try /etc/boinc-client.
For app_config.xml try /var/lib/boinc-client/projects/<project name> where <project name> for Einstein
is "einstein.phys.uwm.edu" (no quotes).

You're welcome.
I just recently started using Mint on a few virtual machines (VirtualBox). Mint is a very nice distribution. I normally run Windows 10.

I too want to try running Linux Mint 20 either in a VirtualBox or as a dual boot with Windows 10. I haven't decided yet.

Hi,
Just wanted to throw in another 2 cents worth.
In my Ubuntu Linux, the working data is in /var/lib/boinc-client.
Here is a two-level tree:
/var/lib/boinc-client$ tree -L 2
