Save Migration/Saving Paths

[lordfridge9]

Good evening,

I've recently replaced my hard drive with an SSD. I still have the hard drive with it's data and can use it as a separate file storage/drive. All my games/saves and everything from here is in there and hasn't moved. I can run the games once the drive is connected but they don't have any save data. I know that the data is still there as I've not deleted anything and a Japanese game I ran, allowed me to load files.

Now I was wondering, is it possible for me to get games to recognize my old saves that are already in the hard drive and make sure to that once I run the game from the hard drive, the save also saves on that drive? Obviously it would be easier just to transfer all my data into the SSD, but I kinda want to keep it "clean" and only have specific stuff on it.

Thank you for your advice,

Regards,

Lord Fridge

Most of your savefiles should be somewhere inside :/users/username/AppData folder.

If you want o keep it clean find the saves you need and then move them to the same location on your ssd.

I do not recommend changing the default location of your %appdata% folder to your hard drive because that could give you a headache in the long run.
