Neovim settings get lost

I have neovim installed and this is my init.nvim file

call plug#begin('~/.local/share/nvim/plugged')

  Plug 'tyrannicaltoucan/vim-quantum'
  Plug 'mxw/vim-jsx'
  Plug 'pangloss/vim-javascript'
  Plug 'itchyny/lightline.vim'
  Plug 'doums/darcula'

call plug#end()


colorscheme darcula

I use :source init.nvim and then :PlugInstall then everything seems ok and all plugins and themes are installed and the theme is changed too. But when I restart neovim everything is reverted to its original state like nothing has ever happened.

Is your init.vim at the correct path?

This is the most reliable way to edit the correct file.

Open vim and execute the following command (start by typing :).

:exe "edit" stdpath("config")."/init.vim"

I was creating the wrong file , it had to be init.vim and i was creating init.nvim Also I checked again and unbelievably there was no nvim folder in the .config folder at all . Recreated the file and problem solved.
