When you create and save a website RW saves it as a ‘project’ in a single file. That file will be wherever you saved it originally when you created the website.

What files are you looking for?

RapidWeaver project files (is a special folder called a package) contains everything RW needs.

When you publish or export the site RapidWeaver creates all the individual files needed by the web server.

If you export your site locally to a folder, you will see all the individual files.
