Backing up Saved Files
Here are the detailed steps to locate and backup the saved files for Content Warning:
- Open File Explorer on your PC.
- Navigate to the C: drive.
- Open the “Users” folder.
- Open the folder with your username (replace “(username)” with your actual username).
- Open the “AppData” folder. Note: This folder may be hidden by default. You can reveal hidden folders in File Explorer by clicking on the “View” tab and checking the “Hidden items” box.
- After entering the AppData folder, open the “LocalLow” folder.
- Open the “Landfall Games” folder, and then the “Content Warning” folder.
- Here, find and open the “Saves” folder.
- In the “Saves” folder, you will find three files named “Save0.bin” (slot 1), “Save1.bin” (slot 2), and “Save2.bin” (slot 3). These files represent different save slots in the game.
Now, to backup a saved file, simply copy the desired file(s) to a safe location on your PC or external storage device. You can do this by right-clicking on the file, selecting “Copy” and then pasting it into the desired location. Repeat the process for each saved file you want to back up.
With saved files backed up, you not only safeguard your progress but also gain the ability to reload them in case of errors. To do so, navigate back to C:\Users\(user name folder)\AppData\LocalLow\Landfall Games\Content Warning\Saves on your PC, and replace the existing save files with the backed-up ones, ensuring correct naming (“Save0.bin” for slot 1, “Save1.bin” for slot 2, etc.). Launch Content Warning and your game should load from the backed-up save.
Where are your saved recordings?
Additionally, for recordings, Content Warning typically saves them to the desktop by default. Double-check your desktop for any recordings, and if you still can’t find them, check whether you have set Desktop icons as Hidden. If yes, change this setting.
