Transfer save from microsoft store?

Is it possible to move game saves from the windows store version to the steam version? I played through it with game pass a while back and it'd be nice to know if I could use those saves before buying.

Ok, so good news: it is possible to transfer the save files from Windows Store version to the Steam version but it requires bit of tinkering.

Here's how I did it...

Locate the Windows Store game save file location, usually inside the Windows User folder.

Open the RUN command (Win+R) and type %UserProfile% to go to your user folder and open the "Saved Games" folder and go to "The Outer Worlds Windows 10" folder.

If you rename the folder to just "The Outer Worlds" then open it and you'll find a folder with a series of numbers for example "2533274810816388" you have to copy all the contents and place them inside the "The Outer Worlds Folder" and the saves should be readable in both the Steam and Epic Games versions.
