Here's the information that you need including other FAQs: https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#where-is-the-electrum-datadir-located
BTW, Electrum will display the name of the last wallet that you opened if the "config" file inside the data directory is intact.

If you have links to tutorials to help me understand how all this works. I would appreciate it because I understand NOT MUCH...... except that I need to keep the seed safe. I would feel safer storing my BTC on an online service but everyone says it's a bad idea... Right?
If you decided to do that, make sure that the file is encrypted and if you like, disguise it as another type of file (like .jpg) since you can freely add an extension.
And couple it with a bunch of .jpg images, and you have a hidden wallet.

Example (testnet) - with '.mp4' extension:
