Lost Save File Issue - Information needed
Hi folks,

some of you are reporting that their save file got lost after a couple hours in game. We are currently trying to figure out why that is happening. If you encountered this issue please be so kind as to try to answer the following questions. It would help a lot in finding out what caused this problem and we would be able to fix it more quickly:

1. When you exit the game was there any error displayed or did the game crash when this issue occurred?
2. When you returned back to the game, was there no save file or was there a save file with wrong progress?
3. Are you using any anti virus software ?
4. Are you using your windows as admin ?
5. Did you play the game offline on steam and then at some point went online - cloud save active?
6. Can you check if the folder where the save file is saved was write protected? One way to check this is trying to save a text file manually in the save folder
  • Go to C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Boston\Saved\SaveGames
  • Right click -> New -> Text Document -> Write something in the text file and save it.
  • If the save was successful then user has write permission , if not then user does not have write permissions
7. For how long were you playing the session before exiting to main menu when this issue occurred
8. Did this issue happen when you loaded a save file or when you started a new game ?

Note : Location to save file C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Boston\Saved\SaveGames

You can find these more easily by typing %localappdata% into Windows search.

Sorry again for any inconvenience this might cause you. We are working on a solution!

I had this problem indeed! It was my first time playing and I was really enjoying it and playing for a good amount of time, maybe like 2 hours. Then I wanted to take a break and just turned off the game as it should. Later when I wanted to play some more I had to start a new game. That really sucked because I put a lot of time into the game that went missing.
I really hope I won't have this problem doesn't happen again as it really is demotivating to play after something like that happens.

1. No.
2. I returned maybe after 1 hour. There was no save file.
3. No, only the built in windows defender.
4. Yes
5. I think I was online all the time. But my internet ins't the most stable.
6. I had write permission.
7. 2 to 3 hours
8. The happen I opened the game after not playing. Before I closed the game I saw the options tot continue where I last stopped playing. But later when I re opened my game that option was gone and I only had the option to make a new game.

Are you refering to the duty starts or to shift points?

The duty stars are capped at the moment. Each district update will add 10 duty stars to the games progression

I was at the end of my 3rd shift in the 2nd town (forgot name), I was down in the subway speaking to a lady sitting on the floor. After I let her go she stood in the stairwell blocking me in and I was unable to do anything after that, the game was not saved and I do not have any of the local files you refer to

1. When you exit the game was there any error displayed or did the game crash when this issue occurred? No, there weren't any errors. When I logged out of the game, I noticed I had the option to "continue" but with 0 hours played. I figured it was a bug and quit all the way out.

2. When you returned back to the game, was there no save file or was there a save file with wrong progress? When I logged in I could only start a new game and all progress was lost.

3. Are you using any anti virus software? Just the Windows Defender (Windows 10).

4. Are you using your windows as admin? Yes.

5. Did you play the game offline on steam and then at some point went online - cloud save active? No, I was online the entire time.

Are your Cloud Saves gone? No, the saved file is there.

6. Can you check if the folder where the save file is saved was write protected? I was able to create, edit, and save a new text document.

7. For how long were you playing the session before exiting to main menu when this issue occurred I played for 2.6 hours.

8. Did this issue happen when you loaded a save file or when you started a new game ? I just purchased the game last night. This was my first time playing it -- so a new game.

It happened right in the game, it crashed and voila, my save files were gone when I went back and the only thing I could do is "New Game", which I did NOT press.
