Where Are Battletoads (2020) Save Files Located?
Battletoads splits by store: Steam userdata for Steam and an Xbox package folder for the Store build, with both clouds.
Last updated
Battletoads ships on two PC stores with nothing shared between them. The Steam build uses the standard userdata tree under its app ID. The Microsoft Store build uses the Xbox package layout with saves in SystemAppData.
Xbox Play Anywhere ties the Store copy to consoles through Xbox Cloud, which is the real transfer path. File copies only work within the same store. Check which edition you own first, then open the matching tree.

Frequently asked questions
Can I copy a Steam save into the Store version?
No. The Steam build lives in Steam userdata while the Store build lives in its Xbox package folder. Copying between them does not transfer progress. Xbox Cloud syncs the Store side instead.
Does Battletoads back up saves to the cloud?
Steam Cloud covers the Steam copy and Xbox Cloud covers the Store copy. Manual copies still help before reinstalls, since cloud restores lag the live files.
Where are Battletoads saves on Steam Deck or Linux?
Use the Proton prefix with app ID 1244950. The userdata tree is mirrored inside it.
