How to Back Up and Restore PC Games

You by no means know when a hard drive failure or unintentional format would possibly erase all of your hard-earned progress. Here is learn how to again up your Steam (and different) PC games in case of knowledge loss.

Methods to Again Up Your Sport Saves

A recreation’s recordsdata can (nearly) all the time be re-downloaded, however your recreation saves are irreplaceable. With out backups, there is no technique to restore a storage filled with GTA V vehicles you spent hours buying and tricking out—in need of beginning over from scratch. Fortunately, save recordsdata do not take up a lot area, so that they’re simple to again up.

By default, Steam—and different recreation shoppers, like Origin—can again up your settings, saves, and different knowledge to their very own respective cloud companies. These settings must be enabled by default, however you possibly can double test within the following areas:

enable steam cloud services in steam

  • In Steam, head to Steam > Settings > Cloud > Allow Steam Cloud Synchronization for Functions Which Help It, and ensure it is checked. You too can right-click any recreation, select Properties, and make sure the Cloud Synchronization field is checked beneath the Updates tab.

  • Within the Epic Video games Retailer, click on Settings and test Allow Cloud Saves.

  • In Origin, hover over your profile image and head to Software Settings > Installs & Saves and toggle Saves on beneath Cloud Storage.

  • In GOG Galaxy, go to Settings > Sport Options and test Cloud Saves.

  • In Uplay, navigate to Settings > Common and test Allow Cloud Save Synchronization for Supported Video games.

Be aware that not all video games will essentially use their consumer’s built-in cloud service—so if a recreation’s progress is necessary to you, you might have to do a bit of additional analysis to see if it backs up routinely. If you wish to again up these saves your self—or in the event you simply need an additional backup along with the consumer’s built-in cloud storage—you will want to seek out out the place that particular recreation shops its save recordsdata.

Video games that make the most of Steam’s cloud saves could retailer these recordsdata beneath C:Program Information (x86)SteamUserdata. You might also discover some video games retailer their save recordsdata in your Paperwork folder—search for a folder with the sport’s identify, the writer’s identify, or contained in the “My Video games” folder. Different titles could bury saves in your consumer’s %APPDATA% folder. You might have to Google the sport in query to verify the place its save recordsdata are saved.

As soon as you understand the place all of your save recordsdata are, simply copy these folders to your backup drive for protected holding. Ideally, you must use a backup instrument that does this commonly and routinely, whether or not it is Windows’ built-in File History or a dedicated cloud backup service. So long as you embrace these game-save folders within the backup alongside your different private recordsdata, you will all the time have them helpful—and you’ll restore them to their authentic location on a brand new drive to choose up the place you left off.


Methods to Again Up and Restore an Complete Sport

If in case you have a good web connection, backing up your recreation saves could also be sufficient—in spite of everything, if you wish to return to a recreation later, you possibly can simply re-download it from Steam. But when your web connection is gradual, backing up all the sport’s recordsdata to a different drive permits you to re-install it a lot sooner sooner or later. 

It is also helpful if in case you have a bunch of mods put in that took ages to tweak good (my fellow Dovahkiin know what I am speaking about). You may want extra space in your backup drive than you’d for save recordsdata, however hey—storage has gotten pretty affordable. There are two methods to again up your recreation recordsdata:

windows game files

To maneuver a recreation to a different drive however maintain it playable, head to Steam > Settings > Downloads > Steam Library Folders and click on Add Library Folder. By creating a brand new Steam library in your secondary drive, you possibly can right-click any recreation, head to the Native Information tab, and transfer it to the brand new library on that drive. For more information, and for directions in different recreation shoppers, see our information on moving PC games to another hard drive.

If you wish to again up the sport recordsdata however do not want them to be playable—you simply need them able to re-install sooner or later—navigate to the sport’s set up folder. For Steam video games, that’ll be C:Program Information (x86)Steamsteamappscommon in a folder with the sport’s identify. Drag these folders to your backup drive—or embrace them in your automated File History backup—then uninstall them from Steam (if desired). For video games in different shoppers, repeat this course of with their very own set up folders.

If you wish to play the sport once more sooner or later, simply restore that folder to the identical location and click on the sport’s Set up button in Steam. As a substitute of downloading them, it’s going to see the recordsdata and confirm their integrity so you may get taking part in shortly.

Alternatively, if in case you have the area, you would simply maintain your total C:Program Information (x86)Steam folder backed up with the remainder of your private knowledge, making certain nothing ever will get misplaced. If in case you have any mods put in, although, make sure you again these up as nicely—third-party instruments like Nexus Mod Supervisor could have their very own backup methods, so make sure you learn up on the sport and mods in query. You do not wish to begin from nothing the subsequent time you are feeling nostalgic for Minecraft.
