Where Are Touhou Koumakyou: New Classic Saves Located?

The New Classic remake keeps th06.cfg, score.dat and replays inside its Steam folder, which is named th06nc rather than the game title.

Last updated

Most games put saves in AppData. This one does not. Touhou Koumakyou: New Classic writes th06.cfg, score.dat and a replay folder straight into its install directory, and the Steam folder is named th06nc, not the full title.

The folder name is the first gotcha. The second is permissions: if Steam lives in Program Files, the game may fail to write score.dat there. A library on another drive avoids that. Steam Cloud covers the score file and replays, so a clean reinstall can pull them back. If you keep more than one Steam library, check which one holds th06nc before you start hunting.

Frequently asked questions

Where are Touhou Koumakyou: New Classic saves?

In the game's own install folder, steamapps\common\th06nc. score.dat holds scores and unlocks, and replays are in the replay subfolder next to it.

Why is there no Touhou folder in AppData?

The remake does not use AppData. It writes th06.cfg, score.dat and the replay folder next to the executable, which is unusual for a 2026 Steam release and easy to miss when searching.

score.dat is missing after a reinstall, what now?

Check that Steam Cloud finished syncing before launching the game. If the folder sits in Program Files, the game may not have been able to write score.dat in the first place.

How do I back up my Touhou replays?

Copy the replay folder inside steamapps\common\th06nc with the game closed. The .rpy files are standalone, so you can copy them back at any time without touching score.dat.
