      jpackaged applications support both system-wide and per-user configuration.

      jpackage application launcher will look up the corresponding `.cfg` file not only in the application installation directory (the system-wide installation location) but also in user-specific locations. User-specific directories for `.cfg` file look up are:

      Linux
      ```
      ~/.local/${PACKAGE_NAME}
      ~/.${PACKAGE_NAME}
      ```
      macOS
      ```
      ~/Library/Application Support/${PACKAGE_NAME}
      ```
      Windows
      ```
      %LocalAppData%\%PACKAGE_NAME%
      %AppData%\%PACKAGE_NAME%
      ```
      where `${PACKAGE_NAME}` and `%PACKAGE_NAME%` refer to jpackaged application name.
