 ### Settings
 
+To edit MarkdownLivePreview's settings, you just need to look in the command palette
+`Preferences: MarkdownLivePreview Settings`, or from the menus:
+*Preferences → Package Settings → MarkdownLivePreview → Settings*
+
+Do not edit the left file (by default, you cannot), but edit the right file. This last file will
+override the default one (on the left), and will be saved in your `User` folder, which makes it easy
+to back up.
