Infinite Wealth uses its own LikeADragon8 directory, and that distinction matters when a player already has several Like a Dragon games installed. Backing up the wrong Sega subfolder is an easy mistake because the titles share publisher, engine lineage, and similar naming. SaveEditor therefore records the exact product root and the Steam user-ID layer. The Microsoft Store release is separated again through WGS, so this page treats it as a different storage container rather than promising drag-and-drop compatibility.
For this PC reference, the documented storage is Windows: Steam: %APPDATA%SegaLikeADragon8Steam<user-id> ; Microsoft Store: %LOCALAPPDATA%PackagesSEGAofAmericaInc.ProjectElvis_s751p9cej88mtSystemAppDatawgs<user-id>. The known file or folder pattern is Steam save records beneath LikeADragon8Steam<user-id>; Microsoft Store data is WGS-contained.. Infinite Wealth uses a dedicated LikeADragon8 profile root for Steam. Microsoft Store again uses WGS, so store-to-store restoration is not merely a directory rename.
Backup guidance: Back up the whole LikeADragon8 Steam user-ID folder or the full Microsoft WGS container. Keep a date and storefront label with the copy. Steam Cloud and Xbox Cloud are documented for the matching editions. Launcher and cloud context matters because Steam data is account-specific under the Steam subfolder. Microsoft Store uses a separate package/container identity.
Compatibility and recovery should stay conservative. Do not merge Infinite Wealth data with Yakuza: Like a Dragon directories; the games have different roots and data versions even though they share a series and engine lineage. If the expected progress is not visible, If a backup is not detected, verify you restored it under LikeADragon8 rather than YakuzaLikeADragon and check cloud conflict dialogs before launching repeatedly. 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.
