How do you create a backup save?

[TMathews]

I've been playing Skyrim SE for awhile and I do not want to loose my progress. How do you create a backup save?

[Licher]

Go to "C:\Users\YourName\MyDocuments\MyGames\SkyrimSpecialEdition\Saves" and copy all of the files inside. Create a folder on your desktop and rename it SSE Saves, open it and paste.

Then do this every 10-20 new saves (When playing the game) so if you ever bork your game you'll have a recent save file to just drop back in.

Bro literally googled "skyrim backup save" and stopped at the very first result. Even though adding "steam deck" to his keywords would had given him the answer he seek.
Some people man.
