How to I duplicate a save?

[Phun]

I want to get all the endings, but i don't want to play over again so how do i duplicate a save into two?

Isn't it in documents? You can back it up to local files and place it where ever you want.

Turn off Steam cloud sync. Navigate to C:\Users/(username)/AppData/Roaming/EldenRing/(bunch of numbers)/ER0000.sl2

Copy the ER0000.sl2 and after completing one ending move the copied file back to where the saved game was and complete a different one. One note AppData folder is hidden so you have to show hidden folders in Windows Settings.

I'll give this a go. Anyone feel free to correct or clarify for me. Go to:

C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\EldenRing

Then copy the folder that's a long string of numbers over to another location. When you want to reload, just copy that folder back to your main game to overwrite.

I haven't done this for the sake of getting different endings, but that should work hypothetically as it's the general backup process.

Alright yeah, must be thinking of the one drive backup save in documents?

One Drive will have a copy of it if you have set it to sync your whole User Folder but normally the AppData folder is not in the One Drive folder.

Just use the address bar of the file explorer:

%appdata%\EldenRing

Yeah this is easier. I always show hidden folders in Windows, been doing it since I can remember. I tend to just manually navigate to save locations.

also with something like winrar u can just r click the save folder>add to archive, done
then when u finished an ending u can extract it again
