Any help?

When you exit the game the game is not saved, I don't know if this happens to some people but I don't know what to do to save my progress.

Game only has auto save. It saves at key points which is usually every 15-20min

I've been playing the game for 3 hours and that's when I closed it and when I opened it again I didn't have anything saved or continue

Are you running the game as administrator? Maybe it doesn't have required file permission on your PC/laptop to create the file.

I don't know if this is the case here but it solves this issue for some other games and it'll take literally few moments to check out, so I think it's worth giving a shot.

I'll try to open it as administrator, thanks for the advice.

For some reason that I don't know it is still not saved, I don't know if I will have to deactivate the antivirus so that there is a save

Damn, was hoping it would help :/

AV software can cause that kind of issue. What kind of program are you using? And did you try verifying the game files?

And last but not least, considering the absolutely disastrous state of the game right now I'm afraid there's a chance that this is some kind of an awful bug that requires a patch. But let's hope it's not.

I have the normal Windows antivirus, I will try to deactivate it and try, if not I will have to wait to release patches with fixes or see solutions

It saves under Mydocuments/Mygames which is under the user's folders. No admin privs are needed as a user has full access to those folders.

C:\Users\David\OneDrive\Documents\My Games\LifeIsStrangeDoubleExposure\Steam\Saved is where mine are saved

It even works with one drive. However, if steam is put into OFFLINE mode, it breaks the game's ability to save

The thing is that it is not being saved and all the time it appears to load the game but no progress appears and I have to start a new game

MAke sure you can see and access the save folder. IF you can't, something is wrong on your windows permissions. Go to Documents, then My Gamess, and then \LifeIsStrangeDoubleExposure\Steam\Saved

Make sure you can navigated into the saved folder

If you're using Windows Defender then what's your 'Controlled folder access' setting? If it's 'ON' try turning it off and run the game then.

I have the folder but as I'm trying to say at no time am I saving any ideas?

If I use Windows Defender I will try to disable it to see if it is able to save because I don't understand
