Transferring Xbox Game Pass PC saves?

[Cuzzx]

Does anyone know if it's possible? I started playing on the Game Pass version, I found the purported save folder called wgs under "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Psychonauts2

• \SystemAppData\wgs\"

You're just gonna have to try it lol

So long as you are in your microsoft account, you can just log on and play on whatever device you are playing on and pick up where you left off on another device.

Knowing whether it uses the same files would help tho.

I understand that, I'm asking about migrating from Game Pass to owning it on PC or platforms like Steam.

That already didn't work for me with Gears 5.

I doubt that because I specifically said your microsoft account. You can be logged onto a steam account without a microsoft one.

I just dont know if they would have personal info tied to them if I did, whtnot with the huge strings of numbers I see on them and MS DRM...

True

Just rename the save file and copy it over this usually works.

Steam saves are located at
C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Psychonauts2\Saved\SaveGames

File names are -
P2ConfigSaveSlot.sav
Psychonauts2Save_0.bak
Psychonauts2Save_0.sav
Psychonauts2Save_A.bak
Psychonauts2Save_A.sav
steam_autocloud.vdf

If someone wants to recommend an upload site I can upload my saves for testing

Thanks. Looks like no luck, files in the wgs folder are named like
containers.index
container.17
container.17
and a whole bnuch of random numbers and letters without an extension. I suspect these could be packed up "regular" save files, but I wouldn't know how to access them, I couldn't extract them.

It worked for me. I went to the Microsoft folder:%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.Psychonauts2_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\wgs\ and copied the most recent save folder (the one with the most KB)

I then went to the steam folder: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Psychonauts2\Saved\SaveGames\ and deleted the file "Psychonauts2Save_A" (SAV file).

I pasted the copied file from the Game Pass version into this folder, renamed it"Psychonauts2Save_A.sav" and boom - it loaded it up.

Good luck!
