# `mix archive`
[🔗](https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/blob/v1.20.5/lib/mix/lib/mix/tasks/archive.ex#L5)

Lists all installed archives.

Archives are typically installed at `~/.mix/archives`
although the installation path can be customized by
setting the `MIX_ARCHIVES` environment variable.

Since archives are specific to Elixir versions, it is
expected from build tools to swap the `MIX_ARCHIVES`
variable to different locations based on a particular
Elixir installation.
