Game Hub / Save Reference

Vampire Survivors Save Files & Tools

Vampire Survivors 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.

Vampire Survivors is unusually helpful because the game maintains backup copies inside its saves tree, but cloud synchronization can undermine a manual reset or rollback if the wrong copy wins. SaveEditor documents both the local AppData path and Steam’s 1794680 remote file so a player can identify whether a change was made locally or restored by the launcher. The safest recovery is to preserve the whole saves/backups tree, then choose one dated SaveData copy intentionally rather than deleting folders while cloud sync is still active.

For this PC reference, the documented storage is Windows: Windows/local: %APPDATA%Vampire_Survivorssaves ; Steam cloud mirror: <Steam-folder>userdata<user-id>1794680remoteSaveData ; Epic: %APPDATA%Vampire_Survivors_EGS<user-id> ; Microsoft Store: %LOCALAPPDATA%Packagesponcle.VampireSurvivors_9pv5cyp4vwdsrSystemAppDatawgs<user-id>. The known file or folder pattern is SaveData.sav in the local save tree; backup copies are kept under the savesbackups structure.. The game has evolved through multiple storage layouts and storefronts. Current Windows local data uses the Vampire_Survivors saves tree while Steam cloud keeps SaveData under app ID 1794680.

Backup guidance: Back up the complete saves directory including its backups subfolder before using the in-game delete/reset workflow or manually replacing SaveData.sav. Steam Cloud, Epic cloud, and Xbox Cloud are documented. Launcher and cloud context matters because Epic and Microsoft Store have different roots. A Steam cloud file and local SaveData.sav may represent the same progress at different synchronization moments.

Compatibility and recovery should stay conservative. Cloud synchronization can immediately recreate a file you intentionally removed. Disable or resolve cloud state before testing a manual rollback so you know which copy wins. If the expected progress is not visible, If old progress returns after deletion, check cloud sync. For a manual rollback, copy a dated backup to the live saves directory only after preserving the newest state. 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

Cloud synchronization can immediately recreate a file you intentionally removed. Disable or resolve cloud state before testing a manual rollback so you know which copy wins.

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.

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

Back up the complete saves directory including its backups subfolder before using the in-game delete/reset workflow or manually replacing SaveData.sav.

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 old progress returns after deletion, check cloud sync. For a manual rollback, copy a dated backup to the live saves directory only after preserving the newest state.

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.
