The good news: Satisfactory saves are plain files on disk, and once you know where they live, backing them up takes seconds. This guide covers exactly where Satisfactory stores saves on a single-player machine versus a dedicated server, how the game&#8217;s automatic backups work, how cloud and local saves interact, and how to restore a backup when something goes wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where Satisfactory stores save files (single-player)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Windows, your local Satisfactory saves live under your user profile in <code>AppData\\Local<\/code>. The full path is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames\\<your-id><\/code><\/li>\n<li>Expanded: <code>C:\\Users\\<your Windows username>\\AppData\\Local\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames\\<your-id><\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <code><your-id><\/code> subfolder is a numerical identifier tied to your Steam or Epic Games account. Inside it, each save is a single <code>.sav<\/code> file. To open the folder fast, press <strong>Win + R<\/strong> and paste <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames<\/code>, then hit Enter. This is also where blueprints and settings are stored, so the whole <code>FactoryGame\\Saved<\/code> tree is worth knowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The dedicated server save folder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dedicated server keeps its saves in a separate <code>server<\/code> subfolder rather than the per-account ID folder. The exact path depends on the operating system and how the server runs. Per the official wiki, the locations are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th>Environment<\/th><th>Save folder path<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Linux<\/td><td><code>~\/.config\/Epic\/FactoryGame\/Saved\/SaveGames\/server<\/code><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Windows (run as your user)<\/td><td><code>%LocalAppData%\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames\\server<\/code><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Windows (NSSM service)<\/td><td><code>%WINDIR%\\System32\\config\\systemprofile\\AppData\\Local\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames\\server<\/code><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Windows Server (service)<\/td><td><code>%WINDIR%\\ServiceProfiles\\NetworkService\\AppData\\Local\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames\\server<\/code><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a managed host the file layout is usually abstracted behind a control panel, so you rarely need to hunt for these raw paths yourself. If you&#8217;re standing up your own box, see our <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/satisfactory-dedicated-server-requirements-ram-ports\/\">dedicated server requirements (RAM and ports) guide<\/a> for the supporting setup, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/docs\/satisfactory\">Satisfactory server documentation<\/a> for panel-specific steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Satisfactory&#8217;s automatic backups work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The game already protects you in two ways before you lift a finger:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Rotating autosaves.<\/strong> Single-player autosaves run every 5 minutes by default (adjustable in Options), and the game keeps the last three. They&#8217;re named <code>{SESSION NAME}_autosave_#.sav<\/code>, where <code>#<\/code> is 0, 1, or 2. When a new autosave is written, the oldest rotates out.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Overwrite backups.<\/strong> When you overwrite an existing save manually, the game copies the previous version into <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames\\SaveGames_backup<\/code>. Note this happens on manual overwrites, not on every autosave.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a dedicated server the same three-autosave rotation applies, defaulting to one save every 300 seconds. You can change how many rotating autosaves the server keeps via <code>Engine.ini<\/code> under <code>[\/Script\/FactoryGame.FGSaveSession]<\/code> with <code>mNumRotatingAutosaves=XX<\/code>. Bumping this up is cheap insurance for a busy multiplayer world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cloud saves vs local saves<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both Steam and Epic support cloud syncing of your local saves, which is great for moving between two PCs but can also cause headaches. Sync-conflict dialogs typically appear when you switch between the Experimental and Stable (Early Access) branches, play on more than one machine, or transfer a save between platforms. When prompted, choosing to upload your local save is the safer option if your most recent progress is on the current machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two important caveats. First, dedicated server saves live in the <code>server<\/code> folder and are <em>not<\/em> covered by Steam\/Epic cloud sync the way single-player saves are, so the server&#8217;s own backups are your only safety net there. Second, cloud sync is convenience, not a true backup, because a corrupted or accidentally overwritten file can sync the bad version everywhere. Keep an off-machine copy of anything you can&#8217;t bear to lose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to back up your saves<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Single-player:<\/strong> Close the game, open <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\\FactoryGame\\Saved\\SaveGames<\/code>, and copy the entire <code><your-id><\/code> folder to an external drive or cloud storage. Zipping it with a dated filename (for example <code>satisfactory-saves-2026-06-13.zip<\/code>) keeps versions tidy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dedicated server:<\/strong> Copy the contents of the <code>server<\/code> save folder shown above. On a managed host, use the control panel&#8217;s file manager or backup feature to download the <code>.sav<\/code> files. Always grab a fresh backup before updating the server, since version jumps are the most common cause of save trouble \u2014 see our <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/satisfactory-how-to-update-dedicated-server\/\">guide to updating a dedicated server<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Schedule it:<\/strong> Manual copies are fine, but automated daily backups beat human memory. A host that snapshots your save folder on a schedule means a bad recipe rework or accidental delete is never more than a click away from recovery.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;d rather not manage backup scripts and folder paths yourself, our <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/satisfactory-server-hosting\">managed Satisfactory hosting plans<\/a> include automated backups and one-click save management so your factory survives experiments, updates, and the occasional catastrophe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to restore a backup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Restoring is the reverse of backing up. For single-player, fully close Satisfactory, then copy your backed-up <code>.sav<\/code> file (or the recovered file from <code>SaveGames_backup<\/code> \/ an <code>_autosave_#<\/code> slot) into your <code><your-id><\/code> folder. Relaunch the game and the save appears in the Load Game menu. For a dedicated server, the cleanest route is the in-game Server Manager: local saves can be uploaded to a server through the <strong>Manage Saves<\/strong> tab of that server in the Server Manager, then loaded as the active session. On a managed panel, upload the <code>.sav<\/code> to the server&#8217;s save folder and select it as the running save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is my SaveGames folder empty or missing?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The folder is created when the game first writes a save, so a brand-new install may not have it yet. Make sure you&#8217;re looking under <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%<\/code> (not Roaming), and check the correct <code><your-id><\/code> subfolder, since each Steam\/Epic account ID gets its own. Dedicated server saves are in the separate <code>server<\/code> folder, which differs by OS and service type as listed above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will updating my server delete my save?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Updates don&#8217;t intentionally delete saves, but switching between Experimental and Stable branches, or jumping across major versions, is where conflicts and load failures most often happen. Always back up the <code>server<\/code> save folder before any update. The save header and save version are tied to the build, so a save written on a newer version may not load on an older one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are cloud saves a real backup?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Steam and Epic cloud sync mirror your current files across machines, which means a corrupted or accidentally overwritten save can propagate everywhere. Treat cloud sync as convenience and keep a separate, dated copy on another drive or in cloud storage for anything irreplaceable. Dedicated server saves aren&#8217;t part of platform cloud sync at all, so rely on the server&#8217;s rotating autosaves and your own backups.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Losing hundreds of hours of factory progress is the kind of disaster that turns a relaxing automation game into a tragedy.
