Hello, I have some problems in environments. I have some manifest file in my computer. When I use `gc` from `Pkg`, it shows how many manifest file I have but I don’t know where are those files. How can I find those files?

Most of the time you don’t need to interact with manifest files manually.

It should be in the root directory of your currently active project. Run `]status` and it will show which `Project.toml` is active. The `Manifest.toml` should be in the same directory.

You can see all tracked manifests with

```julia
pkg> gc --verbose

```
