Breathedge 2 Save File Location & Settings Folder

Open the correct folder

The Steam cloud-save configuration lists .sav files under the SaveGames directory. LOCALAPPDATA resolves to your own Windows account’s local application-data folder.

These paths apply to the Windows Steam installation used for this site. They may differ on another store, operating system or compatibility layer.

Make a copy before experimenting

A backup preserves the files you copied; it does not guarantee that every game version can load them. Keep a copy of the original when comparing saves from different builds.

1. Finish saving and close the game.
2. Copy the SaveGames folder to a separate, dated backup folder.
3. Keep the backup separate from the active game directory so you can identify the version and date it belongs to.

Reset settings without confusing them with saves

In the official FAQ’s September 4 reply, the developer identifies the Config\Windows directory as the place to reset broken graphics or resolution settings. This is separate from SaveGames.

The developer’s instruction removes the configuration files. Moving a backup copy out of the active location keeps the reset reversible. Do not remove the separate SaveGames directory when your goal is only to reset settings.

1. Close Breathedge 2 completely.
2. Back up the Config\Windows folder, then move that configuration folder out of its active location.
3. Launch the game so it can recreate default settings, then set your graphics, audio and controls again.

Keep Steam Cloud and local copies distinct

Steam metadata confirms a cloud-save path, but cloud sync is not a dated backup history you control. Finish synchronization before changing machines and retain a separate local copy when investigating a problem.

The FAQ also covers specific startup errors. Include the exact error message and your installed version in a bug report instead of deleting unrelated files.
