Save File Location and Restoring Backups / Transporting Saves

How to restore a backup save, move files to another computer, or access your savegames

Guide

Hi Guys,

This is a very quick guide on where to find the save files for this game and how to restore a backup.

I recently came across a drive issue and lost my save file completely, cloud sync also failed to restore it

Save files on Windows are located in "%appdata%\com.giab.games.gcfw.steam\Local Store"
Just paste this without quotes into the explorer bar or run box (Win + R) to open the save file location

Your most recent backup is kept in 'My Documents' under the folder name 'GCFW-backup1'

Your next most recent backups are kept in 'My Documents' under the folder name 'GCFW-backup2'

Hope this helps you if your game files gets deleted or becomes corrupt

Simply replace the files in the save location with one of the backup files, ensuring that if necessary you change the backup files name to be the save as the file you plan to replace.

Thanks, you just saved my bacon, especially since the directions on the save game page for losing your save are vague, unhelpful, and specify the wrong location.

I appreciate it.
