The Windows registry can only be "edited" from local files, so the file with the saves must be copied at least to the desktop (or even to the root of the disk), this cannot be done over the network. In addition, you will need administrator rights for the computer of the user you are playing as.

In order to check where the game is saved, you will need a registry editor (regedit)

Therefore, it is problematic to "extract" files with saves, but it is possible through the registry editor and its Export function.

And "loading" saves is only possible by "overwriting" through the "Merge" command on special files for the registry (those files that were previously exported).

Works, thanks for the clarification!

Windows Start Panel -> Search -> "Regedit"
So um I have question do the game file in registry take drive space? And if I delete it do it also delete the game file in local low? Do it have any other problem/affect except delete all game save?

"files" of the save, or rather the game data, of course take up space on the disk, somewhere in the system files of the operating system. A completely unloaded section of the game from the registry takes up 997 KB on my disk (this information is stored compressed in the registry, so it probably takes up even less)

In "local low" information about the size of the game window, its location and some special settings needed by the Unity engine is stored.

And I didn't quite understand the question about completely deleting saves.

So like when I delete the game data in Regedit do it only delete save or do it also affect anything else like local low folder?(which not, thanks for the answer).

Some games on the Unity engine store their data and saves in the local low folder, while others store them in the registry.
The registry data, namely the section I specified, is responsible for the current game, and it is better not to change anything extra in the registry. (Deleting important data can irreversibly break Windows. The game folder is responsible for the game, deleting it will cause the game to create a new folder, as when the game is first launched)
The registry data and the local low folder data are not connected in any way.
The Unity engine itself, on which the game is made, creates a folder in local low from the "game name", but there are no saves for this game there. Deleting the data from the local low folder will not delete the saves.

I don't remember if the game has a function for deleting saves by the game itself, often games that store saves have such a function.

In other words, making a backup copy of your saves or deleting them completely is a bit more difficult than in other games on the same Unity engine.

So is there a way to delete the game completely?

Delete the game folder from your hard drive, delete the corresponding sections wherever you find them (local low) and the game section in the registry.

Although it is quite enough to delete only the game folder if you are not going to play this game anymore.
