Win10 Game Saves - 10/19/21 04:52 PM

Installed my first ever game on Win10 today - played a little - and made a couple of saves. [An Adventure.]

Then went looking to see where the saves had been put, compared to where they are put in Win7.

And, of course, couldn't find them !! lol

Can anyone please offer a clue think

Some times different games save different places. Have you tried... C/ windows/ Users/ your name/ app data/ Then there are 3 folders check each one... Local, Local Low and Roaming...
Some may be at C/ windows/ Users/ your name/ saved Games

Or some may be in your Documents folder / Saved Games

Thanks, Winfrey. It depends on the game as to where the saves go. Try each of the suggestions Winfrey has. Remember that you need to enable "hidden files" to view files like App Data. Super easy in WIndows 10. Just open File Explorer and click on the View tab at the top. Hidden files will be in the options over to the right.

Thank you both !!

Thinking about it, I might not have "hidden files" enabled on Win10 whereas I always had them enabled on Win7.

So I will investigate that aspect first thanks smile

EDIT :

Found them !! I just hadn't enabled "hidden files" redface

Again, thank you VERY much smile
