Where Does Redream Store Saves and Config?
Where the Redream Dreamcast emulator keeps saves and config on Windows and phones. See the folder table below.
Last updated
Redream keeps Dreamcast saves in VMU files inside its data folder, with per game settings beside them. There is no account sync, so the folder is the progress.
Default roots differ per OS. Windows favors Documents while Android favors shared storage. If the folder seems empty, enable hidden files and check the exact case. For moves, copy the whole directory rather than single VMUs. Config files beside the saves matter for controller and video choices. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.
Where Redream stores this, by platform
%userprofile%\Documents\Redream
VMU saves and configs live here. Copy the whole folder with the app closed. BIOS files sit beside saves where your dump requires them.
/sdcard/Redream
Saves live in shared storage under Redream on many builds. Exact path varies by Android version, so search storage for Redream if missing. Copy the folder for backup.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Redream saves?
Copy the whole Redream data folder with the app closed, then place it in the same location on the new machine. VMU saves and per game configs live inside. BIOS files sit beside them where required. Match the app version first, since formats shift between releases.
Does Redream use cloud saves?
No. Redream writes locally like other emulators, outside any cloud sync. You must copy the folder by hand for moves and reinstalls. Keep a dated zip after each completed game, since the emulator overwrites slots without much warning.
