Max Payne - Game Save Location & Backup Guide

A very simple guide showing the Max Payne Game Save Location and instructions on how to save those game save files.

Max Payne Game Save Location:

Max Payne uses your Windows "My Documents" folder for saved games.

Located: C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Max Payne Savegames

The game save files should look like the ones in the bellow image.

Max Payne Game Backup:

In the "My Documents" folder you will want to backup the "Max Payne Savegames" folder either by copy and pasting the folder to your desktop or just make an archive of the folder using winrar, winzip, 7zip or another compression utility.


Hope This Helped.

On my Steam Deck, my saves were located at:

/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/12140/pfx/dosdevices/c:/users/steamuser/Documents/Max Payne Savegames

[On my Win10 PC, they were exactly where this guide says - documents.]

This is not a walkthrough, as tagged.

It's also wrong for me. The save folder has moved back into the game's directory.
