Where Are Dinkum Save Files Located?
Dinkum keeps slot folders with Player.es3 in LocalLow James Bendon folder, synced by cloud.
Last updated
Dinkum stores each slot as a folder (Slot0, Slot1) with Player.es3 inside, under %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\James Bendon\Dinkum. The wiki and SteamDB confirm the mapping with cloud sync. An in game version button opens the folder directly.
Back up whole slot folders, never single files. Restore with the game at the main menu so cloud accepts the copy. Creative mode flags travel inside saves and affect achievements.
