Where Are skate. Save Files and Replays Located?
skate. keeps configs, saves and exports under AppData Local skate on PC, with captured clips in a data videos folder beneath it.
Last updated
skate. follows a simple layout on PC. Everything local sits under one folder in Local AppData called skate, holding configs, saves and exports together. Clips land one level deeper in a data videos folder.
The catch is that progression is a live-service account, so the local tree is only half the story. Backing up %LOCALAPPDATA%\skate preserves your settings and captured footage. Anything tied to your online profile needs no backup at all, and a settings bug is fixed by renaming that same folder so the game rebuilds it.
Where skate. stores this, by platform
%LOCALAPPDATA%\skate
Configs, saves and exports for the PC build, confirmed by EA support troubleshooting that points here for settings faults. Paste into Explorer since AppData is hidden. Rename the folder to force clean defaults.
%LOCALAPPDATA%\skate\data\videos
Captured clips and replays reported by players under this path. The videos folder only fills when a capture completes, so missing clips usually mean the save never finished rather than a wrong folder.
<SteamLibrary>/steamapps/compatdata/3354750/pfx/
Steam userdata for the PC release. Cloud and local mirrors for this title vary by account sync state, so treat the %LOCALAPPDATA%\skate tree as the authoritative local copy and this prefix as the Proton mirror.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up skate. settings and saves on PC?
Open %LOCALAPPDATA%\skate and copy the whole folder with the game closed. That tree holds configs, saves and exports in one place. Your online progression also lives server-side, so this backup covers settings and local files rather than your account rank.
Where are my skate. replays and clips stored?
Look in %LOCALAPPDATA%\skate\data\videos. AppData is hidden by default, so paste the path into Explorer or the Run box. If the folder is empty, the clip never finished saving, which matches the missing-replay reports on the EA forums.
skate. graphics settings will not save. How do I reset them?
Rename %LOCALAPPDATA%\skate to skate.old and launch the game. It rebuilds clean defaults on start, which is the workaround EA support points to for settings that refuse to save. Your server-side progress is unaffected, but local replays stay in the renamed copy.
