Lost save date - any fix?
Today I launched the game for the first time in a couple of months. When I did so, the game went to the tutorial (the pre-menu one you get the first time you launch the game), while update 01.07 was downloading.

When it finished, I noticed that all my story and survival progress was erased. I did not format the disc, or delete and re-install the game. The only thing I can think off is that, because I'm experiencing what I believe to be PSU problems, my PC sometimes freezees, and maybe that caused this issue.

I was wondering if there's any way I can fix this? Is the save data backed up somewhere?
thanks

If your PC crashed or "froze up" during a savegame, it is highly possible that it was corrupted / damaged during this process. In that case your singleplayer progress is unrecoverable (unless you did Windows backups regulary for your AppData folder).

This is where SFV savegames are usually located:
%LocalAppData%\StreetFighterV\Saved
Shortcut: Windows button + R + paste the above line, this path is usually hidden/protected in Windows, you can enable "Show Hidden Folders" to unhide it.

Fight money and DLC unlocks are stored on Capcoms servers, so these are not lost.

You will not get any fight money for previously completed tasks again.

There is a workarround to see your story progress by looking into the shop, story costumes are unlocked/purchaseable for each character, you have finished it with.

You can also track your survival mode progress by checking your unlocked colors for each different costume of each character.

Thanks for the reply.

I checked the files, and had a previous version saved, dated from early July, but since those files were also without any saved progress, I guess the files got corrupted not today, but the previous time I played it.

I guess I'm out of luck. :(

thanks anyway
