Where Are Digimon Story Time Stranger Save Files Located?
Digimon Story Time Stranger keeps local saves in a gamedata savedata folder, with Steam Cloud copies in userdata.
Last updated
Digimon Story Time Stranger stores local saves in a gamedata\savedata folder inside the game's own install directory. The demo uses its own sibling folder, so demo progress and full-game progress never mix. Steam Cloud mirrors saves under userdata for App ID 1984270.
Restoring backups is where people get stuck. Cloud copies use renamed files, and Steam may silently re-download the newer cloud save over your restore. Go offline, restore with the game closed, launch once, save in-game, then come back online and pick the local files when Steam asks.
Where Digimon Story Time Stranger stores this, by platform
<SteamLibrary>\steamapps\common\Digimon Story Time Stranger\gamedata\savedata
Local slots as .bin files. Copy the whole savedata folder for backup. The demo equivalent sits under the Demo install folder with the same layout.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[SteamID3]\1984270
Cloud copies under renamed names. Treat this as the sync cache, not the file to edit. Back up the local savedata folder instead.
Frequently asked questions
Can I transfer my demo save to the full game?
The game reads demo and full-game folders separately, and conversion is not a plain file copy. Start the full game and use any built-in carryover prompt. Manual copying between the two savedata folders is unreliable.
Steam keeps overwriting my restored backup. How do I stop it?
Disconnect, restore the savedata folder with Steam fully closed, launch offline, save once in-game, then reconnect. When Steam flags a conflict, choose the local files explicitly instead of letting it auto-resolve.
