Most software has a default config location. You can search it on archwiki(qubes is using fedora, but in general the arch wiki list paths that work on all distros as location where the configuration for a program must be placed), ask chatgpt or search on google for the default config location for that program. It might be in /etc or somewhere in /usr/.
