help! save progress
Hi all,
I was playing Silent Hill 2 Remake on my Steam account, but my account got banned. After creating a new account and purchasing the game again, I noticed my save progress is gone, and it seems like I'm starting from the beginning.
Is there any way to transfer my game save data from the old account to the new one? I would appreciate any help or advice on how to recover my progress.
Thanks in advance!

As SH2 does not support Steam cloud saves, you should find your saves at:

C:\Users\[YOUR USERNAME]\AppData\Local\SilentHill2\Saved\SaveGames

or:

Press Windows and R keys together then copy paste:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\SilentHill2\Saved\SaveGames\

Now you have to copy them to the save folder for your new Steam account.

Alternatively i found this article:

https://wikigames.net/silent-hill-2-remake-save-files/

If you click on the blue text for example under Eastern South Valve it downloads a specific save file based on locations in the game.

Please note I only have one account so some parts may not be accurate.

Open the location where you have steam installed and look for the folder userdata and open it. Inside there you should have two folders with the folder name consisting of numbers which corresponds to an account. Example 12345678.

Open your first numbered account and look for a folder inside there with the numbers 2124490 which is the folder for Silent Hill 2. Open 2124490 and you should see another folder named ac. Now open any remaining folders in the ac folder until you find a folder named save. Copy paste any save files you downloaded into that folder.

Repeat the process for your second account. Boot the game on your second account and hopefully your save file appears.

Are you banned in Silent Hill? If not, what keeps you from playing on the old account?
