Playing games is fun and all, but knowing where the in-game progress is being saved on your PC is good knowledge to have. Most gamers do not bother learning about the simple stuff and later regret it. For example, Ghostrunner 2 also saves its files in a particular directory, and if you are not aware of the location, you might lose significant progress in case of any game crashes or data corruption. So, if you are interested in knowing where the save files of Ghostrunner 2 are located on your PC, consider reading this guide until the end.
The reason for knowing the exact location of the save files can range from simple knowledge to backing up progress manually. If you do this consistently, you won’t have to worry about your saves getting corrupted. Because if they do, you can just replace them with your backup save. That being said, here’s everything you need to know.
GhostRunner 2 Save File Location: Where is it
You have two ways to locate the save files of Ghostrunner 2. The first way follows the traditional method. It’s a bit long, but you will get to understand the process better. The second way is just entering a line of code in the Run box. So, whatever method you choose, the choice is yours.
First Method (File Explorer)
- Open the File Explorer.
- Now, click on This PC from the left-hand side menu.
- Open the C drive and head over to the Users folder.
- Double-click on the folder that has your username as its name.
- Next, open the AppData folder and head into the Local folder. If the AppData folder is not visible, click on the View option found below the Address bar. Now, click on Show, and checkmark the Hidden Items option.
- Here, you will find the Ghostrunner 2 folder.
- Double-click on the Saved folder, and then the Savegames folder.
Now you should be able to see the .sav files for Ghostrunner 2. These are your in-game saves of Ghostrunner 2.
Second method (Run Box)
For this method, you will need to open the Run box first. You can do this by pressing the Windows+R button. Now, enter the following command: “%LOCALAPPDATA%\Ghostrunner2\Saved\SaveGames\” and press Enter. Upon entering this command, you will be taken directly to the SaveGames folder of Ghostrunner 2.
What about Linux?
If you are playing the game on a Linux system (Steam Deck), here’s the directory where you can find the game’s save files:
“/home/YOUR USER/.steam/steamapps/compatdata/2144740/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/Ghosteamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/Ghostrunner 2/Saved/SaveGames/<STEAM-ID>/”
Yeah, we know this looks messed up, but it’s quite not. After you access the home directory of your Linux OS and head over to the drive_c directory, the structure is similar to that of Windows. This Steam folder will be in your home directory. Also, it’s a hidden folder, so you may have to turn on hidden files.
