ladyleigh23 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 PLEASE HELP I've been working on this all day... I had to reinstall Skyrim, NMM, and SKSE because something messed them up (probably me, ultimately) and I got everything working again except for the fact that I cannot find where the game is currently storing save files. Otherwise, the game runs just fine. I just want to figure out to where I should move my old save files so that Skyrim can find them. I saved my old saves in my dropbox so that I could put them back into the "Saves" file. However, my newly installed Skyrim (Documents/My Games/Skyrim) folder had no saves file. I started the game and played through the tutorial, and saved my new character several times, but I cannot figure out where they are being saved. I have tried searching my computer for the appropriate file name with no luck (yes, view hidden files turned on and everything). Nothing. I am running Windows 8 (stupid, stupid) if that helps, and using SKSE. If anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it!!! Thanks all.

olnorton Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 searching for %sav% usually finds every saved game on your computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camaro_69_327 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 make sure you are looking at the correct USER folder....:) So depending on what user you are logged into, you will have different save folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyleigh23 Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 Thanks for the advice guys. I found it in the Admin user folder (not where I had installed Skyrim), probably because I was running skse as admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
