Where Are MOUSE: P.I. For Hire Save Files Located?
MOUSE: P.I. For Hire save folder on Windows and Steam Deck, plus which files to copy when moving machines.
Last updated
MOUSE: P.I. For Hire runs on Unity, so its saves live in the LocalLow folder most Unity games use, inside a Fumi Games company folder. The folder itself is just called MOUSE in capitals, which makes it easy to spot once hidden files are visible.
Steam Cloud syncs this folder, so desktop and Steam Deck progress normally follows your account. If a sync conflict ever wipes progress, these local files are what you restore. Copy the whole Save folder rather than single files, since settings sit beside the saves.
Where MOUSE: P.I. For Hire stores this, by platform
C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\LocalLow\Fumi Games\MOUSE\Save
Steam Cloud covers this folder. If saves stop syncing, confirm cloud is still enabled for the game in its Steam properties before assuming files are lost.
~/.config/unity3d/Fumi Games/MOUSE/Save
Proton maps LocalLow here, so this is also the Steam Deck path in desktop mode. Enable hidden files in Dolphin to see .config, then follow the same folder names.
Frequently asked questions
Where are MOUSE: P.I. For Hire saves on Steam Deck?
Under ~/.config/unity3d/Fumi Games/MOUSE/Save, reached through desktop mode. The tree mirrors the Windows LocalLow path, so copies move between Deck and PC without conversion.
Does MOUSE: P.I. For Hire use Steam Cloud?
Yes. Progress syncs when you close the game. If two machines disagree, Steam asks which copy to keep, so back up the local Save folder before answering that prompt.
