Save file gone
Gonna add one more to the pile:
100 hours in the game, playing with friends, gone with the save file bug.
Tried some of the steps posted here and on Reddit, the bug is finally gone, but so is my save. So now my friends can go on an enjoy Sun break while I get to start anew.

Real f'ing great, neat game, thanks a lot Crapcom.

There is no pile. No such bug exists with the game which actually deletes your save game.
And there is no pile to begin, as hardly anyone reported such to Capcom to begin with.
Have you reported it to Capcom via mail? What did they reply?
If you do not want to play with your friends, that is a lame excuse you bringing on.

Cloud save got overwritten when I tried one of the methods to recover the local files I found here. Sucks, but the post I found warned it could happen, so I'm not upset at someone trying to help (he did had people replying that it helped them, so good on them).
I've just started a new one, but I'll put Sunbreak on my wishlist and wait for a sale.
Gonna be another 100 hours before I wanna think about spending money on this again.

That's 31 pages of results from people discussing the bug, and other similar bugs.
Far as I can tell, it started about a year ago, and hits people everyday.
So yes, there is, indeed, a "pile", and yes, such bug DOES exist. It even has an official desgination by the game itself (MRHS 0034 0036").

If you try to contact Capcom (by mail or other methods) you get told to submit a ticket.
I do have an account, but their support site only tells me I do not have permission to submit a ticket. A quick google search and I found out I'm not the only one. Not only for this game either, you find people complaining that they can't submit tickets AT ALL far more often than people who successfully submitted one.

Please don't make accusations like that. I started Monster Hunter with Generations back on the DS because I had friends to play with, then we played World and now Rise.
If I wanted MH to play single player, I'd be playing Dragon's Dogma (also by Capcom, funny that).

Cheer up, man! I have lost saves in video games more than a handful of times, I'm very familiar with this type of loss.

I know its a grievous undertaking to start anew. But with the Guardian Gear you'll be back at your original progress in a reasonable amount of time. If your friends are all about companionship then perhaps they'll be willing to join you with a new character up until you recover some of your progress.

Unless you'd prefer being boosted close to your original progress, in which case your friends can just boost you a bit till you catch up.

Regardless, if you do happen to continue, then you just have to be extra careful with your Save Backups. :MHRISE_NG:

Your words with incorrect facts are meaningless to me. Keep lying to your friends if you want it that way, but also keep those lies out here.

You do not need a ticket to email Capcom. Again: that excuse is just lame.
If you want to prove me wrong, you can share a screenshot of their reply when you send them an email to feedback@capcom.com / support@capcom.com

Hardly anyone ever reported such bug officially, and there is no bug which actually deletes your save game. If you have an issue with your save game, and you do not want to fix it yourself by the known methods, that is entirely on you.

If it is a big issue, then it needs to be reported, and I do not see you doing any reporting, considering your lame excuse of you needing a ticket. Instead: send an email already.

Stop spreading false rumors, as the issue at game release looks similar but seems more of a different kind. And again: instead wasting lame excuses, you could send them an email or two.

Man, I sure hope nothing bad ever happens to my save file, for how hostile some people are about it. At the very least, if something bad does happen to it, I know better than to try to ask around here for help.

That's what your mistake was, OP: asking about your troubles here instead of on reddit or something.

As for your actual issue, it sounds like a permissions mismatch. If a program doesn't have the appropriate permissions, it won't be able to write files to the disk (games with bad permissions aren't able to generate save files, for instance). And, contrary to what some people might try to make you believe, permission errors are not an uncommon problem for games, especially on a shared machine. Make sure that both steam and monster hunter have the necessarily file permissions on your OS, and see if that fixes the issue.

lol i just had a BSOD last night while playing, yet my save is still there, idk how people get so much trouble with save file, maybe stop using item/charm editor with crazy skills like AB7CB3 4-2-2 ...

That might be it. I just realized, I launched MonHun on my laptop, and that has UAC enabled (work laptop, company policy, can't change it) while my gaming desktop doesn't. That's likely what screwed up my file. Tried and managed to replicate it: MonHun doesn't have access to that folder, reports "Unable to Load", yet you can somehow write and overwrite it with a new save. Lmao. Last time I saw a file with write permissions but missing read permissions was the early 2000's. At least now I know what caused it.

I've since started again, maining Lance this time, so it's not boring. And luckily, I got some friends to help me speed up early game hunts.

Quoting justt because someone might search "charm editor" on the forum:
The game has a bunch of sanity checks, if you edit in an invalid charm, the game simply deletes it. I don't use it (what's the point ...?) but you can read that as a disclaimer on almost all charm editor mods.
Point is: you can charm edit to your hearts content, the game will simply delete invalid charms and keep on trucking. But hop to another computer with UAC enabled, and you're screwed.
