How to Restore a PC Game Save from a .BAT Backup
How to safely restore timestamped backup folders generated by our 1-click backup scripts.
1
Locate Your Backup Root on Desktop
Our backup utility saves archives to
Desktop\GameSave_Backups\[GameName]\ by default.
2
Select Your Target Timestamp Folder
Inside the game backup directory, choose the timestamped folder you wish to roll back to (e.g.
Backup_2026-09-12_14-30-00).
3
Ensure the Game Is Completely Closed
Verify via Task Manager that the game executable is not running in the background, which would lock save files.
4
Copy Files Back to the Active Directory
Open the live save folder using our 1-click Run command, select all files from your backup, and paste with overwrite.
