Save File GONE after quitting game and re-opening later????

[Imp Sauce]

I came back to play again after taking a break and the Load Game option is literally just grayed out for me. I have no clue why, I even manual saved before I quit earlier.
I'm only 5 hours in but I really don't want to have to redo it if I can help it.

Can someone tell me if this is related to all the cloud save threads I've been seeing?

There's definitely some bizarre happenings when it comes to saves. I started playing at my desktop this morning. Later in the day, moved into the living room to play through my steam link and my saves were gone. Return to my computer, and the new saves are gone, and old saves are back. Did digging into files, and sure enough, my computer has two save file folders. I've never seen streaming through steam link have something like this happen before.

I see the two folders as well, my saves are in the one titled "Saved_Steam_--"
and the other folder which has a long string of numbers on the end has none of my progress in it at all. I guess the game is calling up THAT folder instead of the one with my Saves in it??? I guess???

Hi yes, I just played on my pc for 4 hours- went to switch to steam link and noticed all my saves were gone. piggybacking on Imp Sauce's advice, I just simply copied all my saves over to the Saved_Steam_-- folder and then Load game appeared. This is rough

I don't use steam link. Just play on the one desktop. Came back to play after manually saving and quitting and it looks like my last 4 hours of play aren't showing up at all. I'm enjoying the game but I am not okay with 4 hours down the drain.

So I just did what Novanscythe did and it's worked for me as well. From what I can see, the Steam Cloud Save just didn't save after I exited the game, and it only retained my files as if I never started the game even once. BUT our saves are still saved to our PC so I just overwrote the entire Saved_Steam_-- folder with the stuff from the OTHER folder and chose to start the game from my local save when it asked.

Identical issue playing on steam link -> desktop proper.

Bug report, I suppose.

[Francis Ross]

same issue. created a new character but it loaded my old saved file with no progression. hoping devs will take seriously and fix this asap.

[Findanniin]

it's not too hard to fix, just copying savegames between folders - just an odd bug

Where can I find the save folders ?

Since I had to Google it myself to restore my save files, too.

2. Go to Save Location
– Open up the File explorer

– Go to Documents >> My Games >> Marvel’s Midnight Suns >> Saved_Steam_ >> and right-click on SaveGames folder and copy it

– And paste it into the ‘Saved’ folder (Documents >> My Games >> Marvel’s Midnight Suns)

I'm having this same issue except in the Midnight Suns folder I only have the Saved_Steam_ folder and not another that is just called Saved.

I saved yesterday and they showed up in game, so if they actually saved I dunno where in the world they will be.

I was just dealing with this for a few days. I only had one folder in my documents directory so that fix didnt work. Nothing seemed to do the trick. I tried everything I could find which wasnt much. I did copy my existing savegames folder into a new "saved" folder I made, i dont think that was a factor, it didnt change anything on my end.

Out of desperation I just completely uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Relaunched it, and finally I could hit "continue" once again. Hope this helps someone.

Same here. Did you ever find a solution?
