Hi
In windows saves programs in program setting but in linux where is the program saves?
Either a .file in the users' /home folder or somewhere under /etc path.

A bit unclear -- are you asking about programs or program settings?
For Linux, a good starting point is the Linux File Hierarchy Standard.
Not all Linuxes follow it to the letter, though. And other Unixes may do things differently -- for those, you need to look at their documentation.

I agree with athulin as the question is a bit unclear.
However, on a Linux system programs are usually installed in the /bin or /usr/bin folders, this is the default location on most Linux/Unix systems. In addition IF a program is installed from a 3rd party that is not available in the distibution's software repository it usually intalls in the /opt folder, where you might also find some of THAT program's settings.
I also agree with pbobby that the majority of program settings are stored in hidden files in the root of a particular user's /home folder in either a hidden folder or file which is indicated by a "." preceding the file or folder. In most cases you will also find a particular program's data in THAT hidden folder. To view the hidden files or folders in any directory on a Linux/Unix system simply press the "ctrl+h" keys at the same time which will show the hidden files or else in a terminal window just do "ls -la" which will list the hidden files.
Thanks I got the answer maybe I was unclear in my quetion.
@athulin
Thanks for your answer.
