Where Are Yomawari: Night Alone Save Files Located?

Yomawari keeps saves in a data folder inside the install directory, with settings.ini beside it and Steam Cloud over both.

Last updated

Yomawari keeps saves next to the game rather than in user folders. A data folder inside the install directory holds savedata for progress. A settings.ini file beside it carries display options.

Program Files installs can trigger VirtualStore redirection, which silently moves writes into LocalAppData. If saves vanish, check the VirtualStore mirror before assuming loss. Steam Cloud mirrors the same tree for hands off safety on top of manual copies.
