Thanks for your reply AW. Steam uses the filepath mentioned. Cloud thing isn't at play. I may have to recreate. Can't figure out why it won't take the file.

Hi Astral. Thanks for your response. Are you suggesting then that that folder is the only place that a saved game's data is pulled from? Are you sure there's not some other variable at play here. What happened was my save files were strictly deleted. They weren't corrupted or anything like that. And the files that I have are the exact same files that were present before they got deleted. There's no difference at all. It would be the same as if I copied the saves to a folder on the desktop, loaded PoE and deleted the files in game, then tried pasting them back in. It doesn't work. I think there is some other file that gets modified when a new character is made. It's possible that the saves are recognized, but that the "name" isn't in there so it doesn't display them in the load menu. In other words, I have two characters, Araene and Riel. Since Riel was the one who was deleted, maybe I need to go in some other file to turn it back on. PoE seems to load from memory. I.e., if you delete the entire contents of Saved Games, then load PoE, it will restore those files from some unknown location. I need to figure out where that is from. Thanks

Hi guys, I lost 3 saves. I used ShadowExplorer to go to the user/username/Saved Games/... folder and restore all the files. However, whenever I load the game it does not recognize the lost saves, only the current saves. I have verified the restored lost saves are not corrupt. Is there another folder I need to work w/ to restore saved games? It seems like PoE has some backup of that folder or something so that when PoE loads it reads from the backup, not from the current source? idk Any help appreciated. Thank you! Anthony
