After seeing so many others crash and lose it all, I keep an external back up with all the RenPy folder files, and all my finished and ongoing VNs, including most recent zip files. Had a crash, but it was after I started so I got lucky. Of course, I'm not as prolific as some of these guys and all of mine still fit on a 1Tb external.
I sometimes switch between computers when playing VNs, so I've gotten into the habit to keep backups on a series of small USB drives. When I reach the end of an update, I zip a copy of that VN's save folder to one of the drives, then zip a copy of the entire main game folder to a separate drive. The latter in case I want to replay part or all of the last release at some point.

I also keep a zipped copy of VNs that have been completed in this drive system, in case I want to replay any of them later. All zipped copies of entire releases would also include any mods I've installed on them.

I'm personally too lazy to keep up with a system like that so I just hardlinked the Renpy folder to my google drive. Keeps my save files consistent so I can seamlessly switch between desktop and laptop. As a bonus, don't have to keep track of usb drives, knowing myself I'd lose them all the time :D

I'm gonna tell Jules you said that! No Mercy!
Hehe... I tell her myself. If she can hear me over her own cries for mercy.

I really tried playing the ME trilogy and just couldn't do it.
To each his own but, you definitely missed out. Of course that's just my opinion.

Have you tried Desert Stalker?
Yep. Definitely in my top 20.

The Mass Effect Trilogy is a three part epic RPG/shooter in a multi galaxy universe made by Bethesda Games.
