Last updated
Six Days in Fallujah keeps PC data the standard Unreal way. A game folder in LocalAppData holds a Saved tree, with Config for settings and SaveGames for local slots. The layout matches other Unreal tactical shooters, so the pattern transfers if you have moved such folders before.
Folder naming shifted during early access, so older guides may name a folder your install does not have. Check what actually exists before following any of them. Copy with the game closed. Campaign progress is local, while multiplayer elements reconcile with your account.

Frequently asked questions
Where is the Six Days in Fallujah config file?
In Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor next to SaveGames, usually GameUserSettings.ini. That file holds resolution, quality and input choices. Edit it with the game closed and keep a copy, since bad edits get reset silently.
How do I back up my campaign progress?
Copy the whole Saved folder with the game closed. That grabs SaveGames plus Config in one move. Restore it to the same relative path on the new PC before launching, and verify one mission loads before deleting the old copy.
Why do guides name different folders?
Early access renamed the game folder between builds. Your install uses whichever name shipped with your first install, and updates do not always rename it. Trust the folder on your disk over any single guide spelling.
