The 'saves' folder is usually within the game folder. There is also a renpy folder under your user name in the AppData/Roaming folder. Within that renpy folder will be one maned Island ###########. Unless you have checked the box to show Hidden files and Folders, it will not be visible.
if you want to delete them, just use the trash can icon on top of all saves.
to save them just load them and save again and they will appear in the save folder inside game folder.
PS: to tell you the true I am curious about the location of that save folder you are asking about.
Edit:
aaahhhhh ok so thats where they are, in my case is Roamig\Renpy\Island-1499865023
Help me please,I can't open the game.
I re-downloaded the game and unzipped it but it doesn't work.

Looks like this Ren'py bug:
You must be registered to see the links
Maybe you could work around it by plugging in headphones. If that's not possible, you could try downloading the 7.5 SDK and see if you can run the game under that.

After a format of my pc and fresh windows 11 23h2 the game doesnt start pressing the application shows up on Manager after 1 sec gone, i searched the forum for a solution but nothing that did help (no i didnt try to use the headphones, i played the game many times with only my speakers). 
Side note i tried to get help from this stupid AI program from windows no hope either
Another find is that i cant run most of the renpy games not all but some that i cant run.....
Found the solution The problem that the game doesnt start is that i have the file game on my desktop, i dont know why windows needs onedrive to have a desktop option but i guess the problem is from onedrive
i put the file to program files x86 and the game starts
ANOTHER solution that i fix with the onedrive i use the command from Chris titus tech to delete YEET onedrive and now desktop works as it has to be! (and the game starts yes)

WTF happened to common sense ? Don't you have any self preservation instinct !?
This is windows we're talking about. Win-fucking-dows.
You always always ALWAYS ALWAYS stay as far as possible from any "special" folder.
Why didn't you install the game in C:\games\ to begin with ?

x86
Maybe this is the problem? Since some versions, there is only x64 (64-bit) version in the game folder, earlier there was also x86 (32 bit) version too.

No, that's not it. Porki put his game there, and it works.
Windows can handle 32bits and 64 bits programs just fine. There was never any need to split the Program Files directory by architecture, but Microsoft did it anyway.
The thing is that "C:\Program Files (x86)" is the garbage dump where all the misbehaved programs install their crap. There's no rule in this folder, it is a free-for-all where every installer does whatever it wants. Microsoft had to go to great length to not interfere with anything that's put in there.
If you care one bit about your game, you don't put it with the garbage, you keep it safe and sound in another folder, even another drive if you can.

What camera are you asking about? Have you downloaded and read the Companion Guide linked on the first page of this thread? 99% of all questions asked are covered within.

There shouldn't be any problem. Shouldn't ... until microsoft decides to change the rules ... for your benefit, of course.
You can't trust microsoft, because they want to "help" you, and the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Who knows, maybe someday, onedrive will decide to synchronise your desktop on your main computer with your other desktop ... on your mother's computer. I'm sure she'll be thrilled to discover what games you play.

I suspect that you'd get into a LOT of trouble when you get invited round to meet her mum...
