Game Hub / Save Reference

Monster Hunter: World Save Files & Tools

Monster Hunter: World PC save location, backup, file-format, launcher, cloud-sync, and compatibility reference. This Game Hub documents save-file facts without implying that a game-specific Save Editor is available.

01 / Overview

Save reference at a glance.

Game Hubs separate documented save-file facts from actual Tool support. A Game Hub can be useful even when no custom editor exists.

Monster Hunter: World keeps its main Steam PC progress in SAVEDATA1000. Because the file sits under an account-specific Steam userdata tree, the account context belongs in the backup record. Copy the file outside Steam before major changes and keep multiple dated revisions rather than relying on cloud synchronization alone. A future editor must handle account/profile semantics explicitly; Phase 23 only documents where the file lives and how to preserve it safely.

For this PC reference, the documented storage is Windows: <Steam-folder>userdata<user-id>582010remote | Linux / Steam Play: Steam Play: <SteamLibrary-folder>/steamapps/compatdata/582010/pfx/. The known file or folder pattern is SAVEDATA1000. The Steam PC profile uses the SAVEDATA1000 file under app 582010 remote storage. The file contains account/profile progress and should be treated as user-associated data rather than an anonymous portable save.

Backup guidance: Copy SAVEDATA1000 to a dated location outside Steam userdata. For extra context, record the Steam account/ID that produced the file. Steam Cloud/remote storage is part of the normal PC workflow. Manual backups are still valuable because a damaged local revision can also synchronize. Launcher and cloud context matters because The save is under Steam userdata, not the Monster Hunter: World installation directory. The numeric user folder identifies the Steam account context.

Compatibility and recovery should stay conservative. Third-party save transfers often need Steam-ID-aware handling. This Game Hub does not claim that a SAVEDATA1000 file from another account is directly portable. If the expected progress is not visible, If progress is missing after a cloud conflict, preserve both the current remote/local file and any backup before trying replacement. Avoid repeatedly launching the game while deciding which copy is authoritative. SaveEditor.com only labels a game-specific editor as available when a separate linked Tool has a verified operational runtime; this reference page by itself is not an editor claim.

Compatibility note

Third-party save transfers often need Steam-ID-aware handling. This Game Hub does not claim that a SAVEDATA1000 file from another account is directly portable.

02 / Save locations

Where the save files are stored.

Paths are displayed only when they have been explicitly documented for this Game Hub. Environment variables and launcher-specific differences should remain visible instead of being silently normalized.

Linux
Steam Play: <SteamLibrary-folder>/steamapps/compatdata/582010/pfx/

Launcher / edition differences

The save is under Steam userdata, not the Monster Hunter: World installation directory. The numeric user folder identifies the Steam account context.

03 / File format

05 / Backup

Protect the original before editing.

Save editing should be reversible. Keep an untouched copy outside the active save directory before replacing, converting, repairing, or modifying a save.

  1. 01
    Close the game.

    Avoid modifying a save while the game or launcher may still be writing to it.

  2. 02
    Copy the entire relevant save set.

    Some games use multiple files, profile folders, metadata, or companion files rather than one isolated save.

  3. 03
    Store the backup elsewhere.

    Use a separate folder or archive so cloud sync or the game cannot overwrite the untouched backup.

  4. 04
    Edit a copy, then validate.

    Follow the exact compatibility and processing notes on the Tool page before replacing the active save.

Game-specific backup note

Copy SAVEDATA1000 to a dated location outside Steam userdata. For extra context, record the Steam account/ID that produced the file.

06 / Troubleshooting

When a save is missing or rejected.

Start with reversible checks. Do not delete or overwrite the only copy while diagnosing a path, cloud-sync, version, or format problem.

Game-specific notes

If progress is missing after a cloud conflict, preserve both the current remote/local file and any backup before trying replacement. Avoid repeatedly launching the game while deciding which copy is authoritative.

A

Confirm the correct profile.

Games, launchers, and operating systems may keep separate save folders for different users, editions, or profiles.

B

Check cloud synchronization.

A cloud service can restore an older file or overwrite a local change. Preserve both copies before resolving a conflict.

C

Check Tool compatibility.

A matching filename does not prove a matching format. Verify platform, game version, extension, and Tool support state.

D

Restore the untouched backup.

If the game rejects a modified save, return to the original backup before attempting another change.
