Last updated
Rise of the Ronin on PC saves under Documents in the KoeiTecmo folder, inside a Savedata directory named with your Steam account ID. Manual saves are numbered SAVEDATA00 through SAVEDATA49, with separate auto and system saves.
This folder has a troubled history: OneDrive redirection and overzealous antivirus have both eaten saves. Exclude it or unlink Documents from OneDrive before a long campaign.
Where Rise of the Ronin stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\KoeiTecmo\Ronin\Savedata
Each account gets its own Steam ID subfolder with SAVEDATA files, SAVEDATAAUTO and SYSTEMSAVEDATA00. If the path shows OneDrive between your username and Documents, unlink OneDrive so the game writes to the real local folder. Back up the whole Ronin folder with the game closed.
