Where Are Neon White Save Files Located?
Neon White savedata.dat and ghost replays on Windows (Unity LocalLow) plus Proton paths.
Last updated
Neon White keeps savedata.dat plus ghost .phant replays in LocalLow under Little Flag Software on Windows. A user id segment sits in the middle on Steam builds.
The Microsoft Store build uses the wgs container instead. Linux runs through Proton under compatdata 1533420. Steam Cloud syncs most installs, so pause it during manual moves.
Where Neon White stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Little Flag Software, LLC\Neon White\
savedata.dat plus prefs.dat, powerprefs.txt and a Ghosts folder of .phant replays under a user id subfolder. Microsoft Store saves live in Packages\AnnapurnaInteractive.NeonWhite_*\SystemAppData\wgs\. Copy with the game closed.
~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1533420/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/Little Flag Software, LLC/Neon White
Proton path for AppID 1533420. Cloud copies may also sit in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/1533420/. Search compatdata/1533420 if your library moved.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Neon White progress?
Close the game and copy the full Neon White LocalLow folder elsewhere. That grabs savedata.dat plus ghosts together. Restoring one file without the folder misses leaderboards.
Where are Neon White ghost replays?
In a Ghosts subfolder under the user id directory above as .phant files. They sync through Steam Cloud with saves. Copy the whole tree to move rivals too.
