Where Is the World of Horror Save File Located?

World of Horror keeps everything in one save.ito file in AppData\Local\wohgame on Windows (mirrored in Proton for Linux), including graphics options.

Last updated

World of Horror stores its entire state in a single file called save.ito inside a wohgame folder in Local. Progress, unlocks, and even graphics options share that one file, which makes backups trivially simple.

That simplicity has edges. Steam Cloud support stays half implemented, so copies vanish between machines without warning. Settings living inside the save means graphics tweaks travel with progress whether you want them to or not. One file, fully manual care.

Where World of Horror stores this, by platform

Windows
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\wohgame

Single save.ito file holds progress plus options. Copy with game closed for backups. Cloud sync stays unreliable, prefer manual copies.

Proton prefix for app ID 913740 mirroring the Windows tree. Same single file inside. Copy out before Proton changes.

Frequently asked questions

How do I back up World of Horror?

Copy save.ito elsewhere with the game closed, since one file holds progress plus settings. Steam Cloud coverage stays unreliable, so manual copies to your own cloud drive work better. Restore by copying back.

How do I fix the controller versus mouse lock?

Open save.ito in a text editor and flip the controller value, since no in game menu fixes it. The file mixes options with progress at its tail. Back it up before editing any values.
