Save file locations
<Steam folder>\userdata\<your-ID>\1446780\remote
Full path example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\<your-ID>\1446780\remote . App ID 1446780 covers Rise + Sunbreak. The <your-ID> folder is unique per account — open whichever number is present.
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\MONSTER HUNTER RISE\SaveGames
Some installs also mirror save data under LocalLow; if the Steam userdata path is empty, check here.
~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1446780/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/on Steam Deck look under ~/.local/share/Steam/userdata/<your-ID>/1446780/remote
On Steam Deck the save lives inside the game's Proton prefix, not your Linux home. AppID 1446780. Proton always names the Windows user 'steamuser'. If installed on a microSD card, look under that card's steamapps/compatdata/ instead. The folder won't appear until you've launched the game once.
Cloud saves
Monster Hunter Rise uses Steam Cloud through the userdata folder. Only one save slot exists, so after a cloud conflict keep the newer copy — overwriting with the older one wipes hunter rank progress.
How to open the save folder
- Open your Steam install folder (default C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam).
- Go to userdata → your numeric ID folder → 1446780 → remote.
- Close Steam, then copy the whole 1446780 folder somewhere safe before editing or moving PCs.
Save problems & fixes
Monster Hunter Rise save won’t load or says it’s corrupt
Close the game fully, then look for an automatic backup next to the save (a .bak or numbered copy) and copy it over the broken file. On Steam, also right-click the game → Properties → Installed Files → Verify integrity of game files.
My Monster Hunter Rise save is missing or the folder is empty
You are usually in the wrong sub-folder — open the numbered profile/Steam-ID folder inside the path above, not its parent. If still empty, cloud sync may not have finished before the game overwrote the local copy; reconnect and let the cloud sync complete before launching.
Monster Hunter Rise progress rolled back after a cloud sync
When Steam reports a save conflict, keep the version with the LATER timestamp — choosing the older cloud copy overwrites newer local progress, the most common cause of lost hours. If unsure, back up the local folder first, then let the cloud sync.
