Where Are The Witch's House Save Files Located?
Where The Witch's House MV keeps its RPG Maker saves on PC, and why AppData never enters the picture.
Last updated
The Witch's House MV keeps saves inside its own install folder in RPG Maker MV fashion. Numbered save files plus a config file share one save directory next to the game. No copy lives in AppData or Steam userdata.
That layout surprises everyone who searches user folders first, and it makes file verification dangerous since Steam can clear the tree. Proton prefixes mirror the same folder on Linux with no native port beyond Windows. Copy the save folder whole with the game closed. Potion recipes and puzzle flags share the save files, so copy the set whole.
Where The Witch's House MV stores this, by platform
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Witch's House MV\save
Install folder saves with numbered files plus the config file. No AppData or userdata copy exists. Back up before verifying files.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Witch's House MV saves on Steam?
Open the Steam library folder for the game and back up the save directory with its numbered files plus the config file. RPG Maker MV writes next to the game rather than any user folder. Verifying files can wipe that tree, so copy it first.
Do original and MV remake share one save folder?
No. The remake writes rpgsave files in a save folder while the original wrote rvdata files elsewhere. Pick the matching game before hunting for files. Backups never cross between the two engines.
