Where Are Crab Game Save Files Located?

Crab Game saves to a LocalLow folder under Dani's name, with settings in the registry and cloud copies in userdata.

Last updated

Crab Game splits its data in two places. Your unlocks and stats are files in a LocalLow folder named after Dani, while settings like graphics and keybinds live in a Windows registry key.

Steam Cloud syncs the save files from a SavesDir pattern under the game's AppID folder in userdata. That is the copy to grab when moving machines. The registry side does not roam, so expect to redo settings on a fresh PC.

Where Crab Game stores this, by platform

Windows
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Dani\Crab Game

Unity LocalLow location. Holds the actual progress files. Paste into Explorer since LocalLow is hidden by default.

Windows
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[SteamID]\1782210

Steam Cloud mirror (AppID 1782210, files matching SavesDir/*.sav). Useful for transfers: copy these with Steam closed.

Linux
~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1782210/pfx/

Proton prefix for the Windows build (AppID 1782210). Both the LocalLow path and the registry key appear inside the prefix.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move my Crab Game progress to another PC?

The Steam Cloud copy mirrors the SavesDir folder. Copy the local files while Steam is closed, then launch once so the cloud picks them up.

What is the registry key actually for?

It holds video, audio, and input settings rather than progress. Wiping progress means the SavesDir files, not the registry.
