Where Are Little Misfortune Save Files Located?

Where Little Misfortune keeps manual and autosave files on PC, and how to move saves from Deck to desktop.

Last updated

Little Misfortune keeps saves as numbered files with thumbnail images beside them. Manual slots and the autosave share one folder in the Unity location for each OS. Graphics settings live separately in the registry on Windows.

The developer confirmed Linux and Windows clouds do not mix, which makes manual copies the cross platform story. Each save needs its jpg partner to show in the Load menu. Copy pairs together with the game closed for clean transfers. The Load menu reads each save with its thumbnail partner, so lone files never appear.
