Pathless Woods – Don’t See New Saves [Solved]

How to Fix the Issue

Here is how I fixed the issue on my end:

  1. Disabled Steam’s Cloud Save (could be part of the problem and could be not)
  2. Made a backup of my saves folder
  3. Deleted the saves folder (not the backup of course)
  4. Launched the game so the game made a fresh saves folder
  5. Turned the game off.
  6. Placed my main save folder (the one that has a bunch of digits for a name) back into the freshly made saves folder
  7. Done. Now the game can see all saves’ folders in-game. (Both manually restored from the backup I made and newly created)

I suspect this issue could be the fault of either or both of the following files:

setting.json
steam_autocloud.vdf

And if either of them is the culprit you could skip all the steps I made and just delete both of them and see for yourself.

I hope that helps somebody!

I love two things in life, games and sports. Although sports were my earliest interest, it was video games that got me completely addicted (in a good way). My first game was Crash Bandicoot (PS1) from the legendary studio Naughty Dog back in 1996. I turned my passion for gaming into a job back in 2019 when I transformed my geek blog (Re-actor) into the gaming website it is today.
