Where Are Fable Anniversary Save Files Located?
Fable Anniversary save folder on Windows and Steam Deck, plus the Steam Cloud path Steam actually syncs.
Last updated
Fable Anniversary (Steam AppID 288470) keeps saves in Documents rather than AppData. The folder is called FableHD under My Games. Steam Cloud mirrors that tree, so most players never touch it directly.
Unreal Engine is under the hood here, which explains the My Games convention. On Steam Deck the same Documents tree nests inside the Proton prefix for AppID 288470. Copy the full FableHD folder when migrating, not single files.
Where Fable Anniversary stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\FableHD
Paste %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\FableHD into Explorer. This is the Steam Cloud root SteamDB lists for AppID 288470. OneDrive can relocate Documents, so use the real path if yours moved.
~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/288470/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/FableHD
Proton prefix for AppID 288470. The drive_c side mirrors Windows, so Documents/My Games/FableHD appears under users/steamuser. Deck uses the same tree.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Fable Anniversary saves?
Close the game and copy the whole FableHD folder elsewhere with a date in the name. Restoring means putting it back with Steam Cloud paused, then launching once to confirm the hero loads.
Can I move saves from PC to Steam Deck?
Yes. Copy FableHD into the Proton prefix path above with the game closed. Keep sync paused until the save loads, since Cloud can overwrite a fresh transfer with the older copy.
