Where is the save file located for this game?

I don't get to play often and don't want the persistent background stuff running for upwards to two weeks when I am not playing. Where is the save file located? I'd like to back it up.

There isn't persistent background stuff. It just checks the clock differential. I think all you can do is set your clock back, correct me if I'm wrong.

You can and it works. Changing the time/date stamp on save files does not.

OP, this is tolder you are looking for.

You can back up the files for save scumming, but you will not stop the offline simulation. There is a time stamp saved somewhere else in a file, that compares to your computer clock.

Thanks for all the help.
