How to Transfer Your Lost Soul Aside Save to a New PC
Switching computers? Here's exactly which Lost Soul Aside save files to copy, where they live, and how to make sure your progress loads on the new PC.
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\LostSoulAside\<user-id>
Copy the entire save folder at %USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\LostSoulAside\<user-id> from the old PC to the exact same path on the new PC — it holds every slot and the game's automatic backups.
Where the files live: see the full Lost Soul Aside save file location guide for every platform path (PS5, Xbox, Steam Cloud).
How to transfer your Lost Soul Aside save to a new PC
- On the old PC, press Win+R, paste %USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\LostSoulAside\<user-id> and press Enter to open the save folder.
- Copy the whole folder (all slots plus any Backup sub-folder) to a USB drive, OneDrive/Google Drive, or a network share.
- Install Lost Soul Aside on the new PC and launch it once, then close it so the empty save folder is created.
- Open the same path (%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\LostSoulAside\<user-id>) on the new PC and paste your copied files in, overwriting if asked.
- Launch the game and confirm your progress loads before deleting the backup copy.
Does cloud sync move it for you?
On PC, Lost Soul Aside uses Steam Cloud, so your save folder syncs across machines on the same account. Close the game before restoring a backup so Steam Cloud doesn't overwrite it with the older online copy on the next launch.
Common mistakes
- Copying only one slot file instead of the whole save folder — you can lose other slots and the game's backups.
- If your path contains a user-id / SteamID sub-folder, paste your files INTO the matching id folder the new install created, not next to it — the game won't read saves outside your own id folder.
- Letting Steam Cloud overwrite your restored save: quit the game after pasting so Steam uploads the copy you just restored, and if a conflict dialog appears keep the newer timestamp.
