The ~ is actually a shortcut for /Macintosh HD/Users/Username were Username is

You can try /Macintosh HD/Users/Username/Library/Preferences directly.

Does that help?

I followed your instructions, but ~/Library/Preferences/ is not there.  Neither 
is there a folder for WSJT.  And if I search “Library” for
