How to Transfer Your Absolum Save to a New PC
Switching computers? Here's exactly which Absolum save files to copy, where they live, and how to make sure your progress loads on the new PC.
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Absolum_SaveGame_Steam
Your Absolum progress is Save.bin inside the Absolum_SaveGame_Steam folder. Copy that whole folder to the new PC.
Where the files live: see the full Absolum save file location guide for every platform path (PS5, Xbox, Steam Cloud).
How to transfer your Absolum save to a new PC
- On the old PC, press Win+R, paste %LOCALAPPDATA%\Absolum_SaveGame_Steam, and press Enter to open the save folder.
- Select everything in that folder and copy it to a USB drive, cloud folder (OneDrive/Google Drive), or network share.
- Install Absolum on the new PC and launch it once, then close it — this creates the empty save folder.
- On the new PC, open the same path (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Absolum_SaveGame_Steam) and paste the copied files in, overwriting if asked.
- Launch the game and confirm your progress loaded before deleting the backup copy.
Does cloud sync move it for you?
Absolum uses Steam Cloud, so with the same Steam account your Save.bin syncs to the new PC automatically. Copy the folder manually only if Cloud is disabled or you play offline.
Common mistakes
- Copying Save.bin loose instead of keeping it in its folder.
- AppData\Local is hidden — paste the path into Run rather than browsing.
FAQ
How do I move my Absolum save to a new PC?
Copy the save folder at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Absolum_SaveGame_Steam from the old PC to the exact same path on the new PC, then launch the game. Use a USB drive, cloud storage, or a network share to move the files.
Will Absolum cloud saves transfer automatically?
Absolum uses Steam Cloud, so with the same Steam account your Save.bin syncs to the new PC automatically. Copy the folder manually only if Cloud is disabled or you play offline.
Where is the Absolum save folder on the old PC?
It's at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Absolum_SaveGame_Steam. Paste that into the File Explorer address bar (or Win+R) to open it. See our full location guide for every platform.
Do I need to copy any other files?
Copy the whole save folder, not just one file — some games store settings, backups, or profile subfolders alongside the main save. Copying the entire folder avoids missing anything.
