Where Are Pepper Grinder Save Files Located?
Pepper Grinder keeps savedata.dat in %APPDATA%\PepperGrinder on Windows and ~/Library/Application Support/PepperGrinder on Mac.
Last updated
Pepper Grinder stores its progress in one file, savedata.dat, inside a PepperGrinder folder. Windows puts that folder in Roaming AppData. macOS puts it in Application Support.
The path looks odd if you expect LocalLow, since many indie games land there. Pepper Grinder went with Roaming instead, which is why its Steam Cloud config points at {AppData}/../Roaming/PepperGrinder. Copy the folder with the game closed and the backup just works.
