Where to find your save files for PC games on Steam

Location of save files on PC/Laptop, and how to delete or reset saves for Steam games.

Where your save files are stored

Our PC (Steam) games store save data locally on your computer. You can find them in the following folder:

From your desktop:

  1. Open File Explorer.

  2. Go to:
    C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\LocalLow\

  3. Open the folder named after the developer.

  4. Open the folder for the specific game title.

Your saves will be inside this game folder.

If you want to reset or delete your saves

  1. Navigate to:
    C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\LocalLow\(developer)\(game title)

  2. Delete the game title folder.

  3. Launch the game again — new save files will be created automatically.

Can’t find the AppData folder?

The AppData folder is hidden by default.

To access it:

  • Press Windows + R

  • Type: %appdata%

  • Press Enter

  • In the folder that opens, go back one level and open LocalLow

You should now see the developer and game folders containing your save data.

Save locations for titles developed by PHL Studio

Some titles developed by PHL Studio store save data in the Windows Registry instead of the LocalLow folder.

You can find these here:
Registry Editor → Computer → HKEY_CURRENT_USER → Software → PHL Collective → Title

For Registry-based saves (PHL Studio titles):

  1. Open the Windows search bar and type Registry Editor.

  2. Navigate to:
    Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PHL Collective\Game Title

  3. Delete the relevant key or folder.

  4. Launch the game again to generate new save data.

⚠️ Be careful when editing the Windows Registry. Only delete the specified game keys.
