Where Are Astroneer Saves Located?

Astroneer Astro SaveGames folder under LocalAppData with .savegame files on PC.

Last updated

Astroneer is an Unreal game whose project folder is Astro, so saves live under LocalAppData in a folder that looks nothing like the title. Each adventure is a .savegame file with a .savecfg companion.

Dedicated servers read the same format, which makes transfers trivial. Copy the SaveGames folder and solo progress becomes server progress.

Where Astroneer stores this, by platform

Windows
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Astro\Saved\SaveGames

Saves are .savegame files with matching .savecfg files. Config sits next door at Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor. The Microsoft Store build uses a SystemAppData\wgs container under its package folder instead. Copy the folder with the game closed.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move an Astroneer save to a dedicated server?

Copy the .savegame file into the server's SaveGames folder and rename it to the slot name the server expects, usually SAVE_1. Match encryption settings between client and server or connections fail.

How do I back up Astroneer saves?

Copy the full SaveGames folder with the game closed. Community backup tools watch this folder and snapshot it while you play.
